Re: [ormf-dev] Setting out task

Yes that does help to a degree. It is my (our?) plan to manage tasks out
of Bugzilla, but the process of getting to agreement on what tasks need
to be addressed, i.e. the direction of the project, needs a different
platform for discussion.
Discussions are mostly not doable with mailing lists. I think a chat or
a Skype conference would be more appropriate. There is also the
possibility to use my companies account on a web conferencing system but
the client program is only available for Windows (which may be a no go
for B. and Joel).
My overriding concern is that to date the ORMF
team is simply not gelling. Perhaps I simply have accept the fact the we
simply do not have a viable team at this stage.
Perhaps you should wait a few more weeks before jumping to conclusions :-)
Let's start working using Bugzilla for detailed topics and see what happens.

Bugzilla is typically where individual tasks are managed, with the
usual practice of CCs and dependency links used to keep everyone
informed of task state changes. There is typically a default *-inbox
alias provided for components in Bugzilla as the default assignee,
which allows everyone on the team to watch all new bugs arriving so
that they can CC themselves to ones of interest.
So while it's not as ideal as everyone sitting in the same office and
having daily interaction, it does work fairly well in distributed
teams. It's just a matter of getting used to it and sticking to an
agreed upon process. Mailing lists work well for certain things, but
as mentioned already, Bugzilla is where the majority of development
tasks and discussions traditionally take place on Eclipse projects.
This doesn't mean you have to do it this way, of course. There is
typically a balance of mailing list, bugzilla, wiki, and conference
call activity on projects. Perhaps Mylyn would be helpful to use on
ORMF to assist with Bugzilla and task management?

Subject: Re: [ormf-dev] Setting out task
You bring up an interesting subject that does need to be clarified.
What is the purpose of the ormf-dev mail list? It appears from
perusing other dev lists of Eclipse projectw, that the list usage is
typically of a bureaucratic nature, f.i. votes, releases, etc.. So if
we follow this pattern, which is what I gather Achim is inferring,
then where do we have team communications? In my opinion lack of
communication is a major issue with the ORMF team, so simply
delegating task in Bugzilla is going to do little towards team
building. Surely we should start having regular (weekly?) team
conference calls, but is that sufficient? Personally I do not think so.
I would very much appreciate advice from our mentors on these points.
Thanks,
Joel

Just a short reply: we are currently switching our operating
environment from Windows Server 2003 32bit to Windows Server 2008
64bit. It all works reasonably well but takes up most of my time. I
will start working on the CQs in the next few days.
I think it's best not to use ormf-dev for discussions regarding the
individual tasks if the topic is not of general interest. So if there
are no different opinions I'll limit emails to ormf-dev regarding my
tasks to status reports and the occasional cry for help.
