Re: [Inkscape-docs] Fwd: Re: [Inkscape-devel] News item about the new manual work?

      I guess then I'll also need to copy my answer here:
****
Mmh, yes, registration is in French (after that, it's your own language,
I get German).
Okay, this is difficult, so I think we will use the existing gitlab
project that Martin created, and use the issues section for this.
This gives us a board-like view, too, and task lists, and tags, and
email notifications, and it'll be a useful place to register for
everyone anyway (and Brynn is already registered there), because
Inkscape and Inkscape-web and other Inkscape-related projects live
there, too.
I should have thought of this earlier.
I'll ask Martin to give me permissions for it, then we can work there.
Would you join us there, too?
****
To save you from copying your reply, Marietta:
Marietta said she would :)
(and I have contacted Martin for permissions)
Thanks Marietta for pushing the organisatorial side forwards a bit :)
Kind Regards,
 Maren

And I am the culprit on not getting sending back to the list.  My email
defaults to the sender not the list and I keep forgetting to change the
email address and I just did it to Maren with the messages below!
Shame on me

No problem at all.  I did take a look, and you will find I am pretty 
flexible, but is OK to use the English board? I am sure I will not learn 
French in time to help with anything!
I will be happy to extract and help track task and mark them complete as 
we go.  And as a new user of Inkscape, you can count on me to also test 
as we go.

Marietta

Hi Marietta,
a kanban board is a good idea, but there are free alternatives which I
would prefer to see used, e.g. https://framaboard.org/.
Perhaps you would be willing to extract the tasks from previous messages
(esp. the one about the news item to Brynn) and move the board over to
framaboard? Also, we would need someone to take care of marking tasks
that are done by people who are not registered there as done.
We don't need everyone to have an account, I think - we could also just
add their names, when we know they want to work on it.
What do you think, Marietta?
Kind Regards,
  Maren

No thanks for me.  (I've already got a whole notebook of login
passwords.)  But I think Martin has been looking for something like
that.  Especially if it would give automatic reminders (afaiu).
All best,
brynn

Hi all,
I have set myself up with Trello in order to track notes and completion
of Chapter review..  (Just to let everyone know I will not be actually
editing chapters, only providing feedback to Maren on those things I
need to. )
I digress. Trello is free and easy to use.  It has taken me about ten
minutes to figure it out and set my self up with a checklist, which I am
now working on breaking into Sub-heading groups.
With that said, if anyone would like to join me there to create
checklists /progress tracking,  If everyone jumped in to use, we could
also let the group know where we are because I have made it public for
viewing.
So if you want to check it out-here is the link.
https://trello.com/b/5MTvCikC/inkscape
If you want to use it, then create an account and then send me your info.
Regards
Marietta

Thank you, Marietta, Carl, and Martin for pointing me into the right
direction (hopefully) and for calling for help, and volunteering your
time :)
I'm glad to know that people are still interested in helping, but might
just not have known how (or, in CR's case, are too busy with other stuff

believe me, I understand).

Guess I got too used to the standard open source theme of 'grab a task
and do it if you're up to it' - and I'm also kind of shy about telling
others what to do. I'm sorry about not getting that I should take on a
more active, guiding role, to make it easier for new members to join.
@Marietta: What do you think about Martin's suggestion?
Kind Regards,
   Maren

You would make a good editor then, both in the generic sense for
English grammar and the functional sense in 'do you understand this'
Is this something you'd be good at helping with?
Best Regards, Martin Owens
