Re: a start for PLUG

PLUG is a recent development, and the current discussion is how and where to host it. The first choice host is of course this forum (John has welcomed the idea), but the advocates have to show how it can be hosted here (hence, the request for written structure from John). As I read John's post, the...

I think you're both right.
Some research by problem: "wireless", "printer", "pidgin"
Some research by puplet in various manners: "Wary" "431" "official"

Of course don't forget the requisite search option: "HELP!!1111" ;)

I wonder if you'd be better off using an existing section and subsections to use as examples so people can see what you mean. It sounds like Aitch is suggesting a setup like Additional Software (PETs, n' stuff) which is located under Advanced Topics, and WhoDo suggesting something more like a whole ...

We all are, harii4. puppyluvr had joined the PLUG users group. All I know is that everyone should work together as one group. I don't think there is any competition intended, just a bunch of people who think this is a good idea and tried to do something about it. On the one hand, murga is where the ...

would it not be better to keep plug onsite so users can find it easier? (as a lot of links for help point here already) Yea...but since John Murga has emphatically stated that the PLUD will not be hosted here, and we just went through the experience of a moderator creating untold damage to the PLUG...

Thank you ttuuxxx for your efforts. I really don't see why names can't be mentioned about founders/originators. Is this to be a secret organization? Is this the way you (the group) want to get recognition? This is a work in progress. It's still being built. We don't KNOW yet who is interested and I ...

While we wait for the forum section to be properly configured (and yes please could someone remove the redundant word "group" in the PLUG name title?), I think a great project to get started would be to work on the spreadsheets/templates that Thom has offered us. http://puppylinux.us/cgi-b...

Now without breaking any written or implied rule of the forum I've received a PM that refer to my behavior in the forum. Frankly, that bothers me. ~ Why? He has mentioned several times in this thread alone that is what he wants. See below: I am not good at keeping down my own noise but friendly rem...

I am not good at expressing this but some kind of opt in instead of forcing us to opt out? This was covered already in at least 4 different people's posts just in this thread. As I get it John Murga the owner of the forum has appointed ttuuxxx to be the Moderator. So has he accepted that then? Then...

@ Béèm and Bert: Stripe is correct as to the concept. Developers can listen or not as they please. Nothing will be forced upon anyone, developer or user. You can happily ignore the entire thing if you choose with no loss of status quo. The goal is to make it easier for developers who are interested ...

@Bert and nooby: Maybe I didn't present it as clearly as I thought I had. PLUG isn't about structuring how people collaborate or stifling creativity. It's simply about making sense of what we already have for everyone else to find and follow along. It's finding those good ideas and putting them some...

How about "Pussy Linux" as that is what sickgut has chosen! Yes the polite thing is to let the Dev of a thing to decide on the name. But if that name makes it almost impossible for a lot of person to make use of it then one can in a friendly humorous way tease the name maker a bit and he ...

My thoughts as I had originally presented them. The forum structure is a bit different, I guess we'll have to use threads instead of subsections. I do hope we get a few of our own moderators.

the administration of it needs to be handled transparently, equally, and fairly. It's been quite good so far IMO Everyone's mileage varies, obviously.

I think your siggy is a good place to start. ;) I don't think some things are fine as they are. I don't think they should stand still. I'm not the only one who thinks so. I am aware there are others who don't agree with me, but that is no different than any other issue here. Forums are a means of co...

Hi caneri :P *waves*
I have the forum settings set to email me when a new post is made in a thread I've posted in, no spies needed. :P

Hrm, I'm not sure I understand what you want me to spell out, but would be happy to do so if you'd clarify.
