Re: [openbeos] Re: Contribution to preferences or

Hi!

Many thanks for the many reactions on my mail. If everything goes well, I can start at the preferences
team(thx Sikosis). What I see is that there are some "small problems" with OpenBeOs Management. I am new to
this community, but I can say that I am following it since Be Inc "stopped". I love BeOs, but on new systems,
it does not work good anymore. I am very glad to see that there is a group of volunteers that want to make Beos
"competitive" again. But this is "shit" we hear every time. What I see and hear now is that some things don't
go very well and these are:

1) Communication problem with the management. We hear everything in "beos news-sites" but nothing on the "OpenBeos-site"
Solution: A good and UP-TO-DATE news forum with easy acces. What I mean is not a newsletter( the ones that
exists are very good for those who are developing). I mean, if someone leave a team or gets into it, this
should be posted in a central place. And not somewhere in a 'dark corner' of the site. A potential developer
should have the possibility to send a mail to the "right" responsable team-manager. There should not be
old email addresses.

2) There is no easy way to contribute to the project.
Solution: A webpage where you are able to fill in your interests and in which team you want to work. When you
"submit", a mail should be sent to the responsable team-leader

I just want to help, because I think this is important. I'm just 23 years old, but one thing I know for sure. If
there is a lack of communication, you will have troubles sooner or later... and that is not what we need.
With better communication you will see that a project will develop faster and better.
