Date: Thu, 20 Sep 2007 07:38:46 +0100 I would also *strongly* prefer a single channel. I have not found the "user helping" aspect annoying, and it's sometimes useful to stimulate development ideas. If people are annoying, then a quick RTFM response is perfectly acceptable; if they continue to annoy, why not have a few more channel ops around and kick them for not following the protocols - i.e. a more strict police force. I think we should minimise, not increase, any divide between users and developers. The Rockbox team doesn't divide into two neat groups like that anyway. For someone who wants to keep generally abreast of both user and dev aspects of Rockbox (e.g. as a dev primarily interested in usability), there are already too many different feeds to keep an eye on: three mailing lists (including the FlySpray feed), the forums, two IRC channels. This is in addition to the meat-and-veg content (SVN, wiki). Further fragmentation is not a good idea. As an aside, look at how infrequently #rockbox-community is used - this is IMHO purely because it is one feed too far, one window too many to keep an eye on. -- Steve BavinReceived on 2007-09-20 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
