Re: [dsdp-pmc] Fw: eRCP Homepage
I agree these are very valid reasons to have the team page and eRCP should have it. I was kind of worried by the description on the first mail because it sounded like we encourage private communication.

Hi Gorkem,

As a "User" in this case, I always find it interesting to get an idea
what people (or companies) are behind an actual project. Quite recently,
for instance, this allowed me to type in the name of a project lead into
EclipseZilla and get the list of the talks that person was doing. When
clicking further brings me to an actual photograph of a person (As I've
been doing myself on the Wiki and eclipsezilla, for instance), adds even
more to a personal presence and gives an impression of caring for the
community.

Funny as it may be, but when I communicate with people over E-Mail or
Newsgroup I like having a rough idea of what they look like. And I do
believe that this (slightly) can add to the quality of discussions...
Not as much as meeting somebody personally at, say, EclipseCon, but in a
subtle manner.

But that's just my personal thoughts.

Cheers,
Martin

Added the plan link to the left menu. It was also available under the
news item. Adding the team page will take more time and effort. I am not
sure I follow the contact argument, we have the newsgroups and the
developer mailing list, listed on the main page. Are we looking to add
some bilateral communication?

I'll ask Gorkem to add the links.
As for the milestones. There's probably no great reason they are there. Just that since we don't have that many, it has not been vital to clean them up. Curiously though, download stats often show significant interest in the last 1 or 2 milestones. I have no idea why 


this is. So I suggest we keep the latest 2 milestone builds available.

Thanks for your feedback,
        Mark

Hi Mark,
I recently had a look at the eRCP homepage (_http://www.eclipse.org/ercp/_), and just wanted to let you know of two things I noticed - 

    * I was missing several items in the left navigation bar, most
      noticably a "Team" link and a "Plan" link.I think these would
      probably be helpful for some users ... I notice that I'm getting
      a good deal of questions from the community via private mail
      rather than the (preferred) newsgroup, and I figure they get my
      E-mail address from postings I make or the "Team" page on the
      web. You might discourage some interested parties from
      contacting you if you don't have a "Team" link.
    * On the download page, I was taken aback a little because there
      are still so many old milestones. Is there a reason why old
      milestones are still there now that you have a release?

I hope you find these helpful and not just a rant,
Cheers, 
Martin
