== What are we talking about? ==

== Proposed next steps ==

−

~~=== Make a SoaS mailing list ===~~

−

~~Support:~~

−

* SoaS discussions are often SoaS-specific and treat "Sugar" as an upstream; the details of development for one do not necessarily matter for the other, so splitting into two separate lists may help people manage their inbox traffic better.

−

* There are sufficient numbers of people (including several key SoaS developers) interested in a SoaS-specific list to enable good working conversations to be had there.

−

~~Concerns:~~

−

* The membership of an SoaS list overlaps heavily with the existing iaep and sugar-devel lists, so a new list to reach everyone may not be needed.

−

* Splitting off a separate list might create overly segregated conversations with less total momentum than if we all continued on iaep and sugar-devel.

−

~~Who decides:~~

−

As a SL project, SoaS can get its own mailing list whenever it wants; it's just a matter of someone who is interested in a SoaS mailing list to file the appropriate ticket with Infrastructure and follow up to make sure it's created and the appropriate interested parties join it once it is made.

=== Formalize a SoaS development team ===

Line 69: Line 56:

This is dependent on the answer to "what 'SoaS' refers to," so in effect the people who decide that question also decide who gets to decide this question. As a SL project, the people working on this code can call the project whatever they wants, so long as it does not interfere with the usage SL decides on for the term "SoaS."

: Sebastian Dziallas is calling the coming iteration '''''Sugar on a Stick, Blueberry''''' [http://www.mail-archive.com/sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org/msg08994.html].

+

== Completed next steps ==

+

=== Make a SoaS mailing list ===

+

The list was created at http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/soas after reaching consensus on the ticket requesting that the list be created, http://dev.sugarlabs.org/ticket/1419.

+

From the list description: "This list is intended for discussions related to the development of Sugar on a Stick, which is located in the Sugar Labs wiki. User feedback can also be directed to feedback@sugarlabs.org and the IAEP (It's An Education Project) mailing list. Upstream development and discussions of Sugar take place in the sugar-devel mailing list. Other LiveUSB Sugar projects are invited and very welcome to share their concepts, ideas and thoughts on-list, too." Also see the [http://meeting.sugarlabs.org/sugar-meeting.log.20090923_1558.html log from the informal IRC discussion about mailing list creation] for more context.
