Essentially, we need to figure out the flow, mock up some web pages and then develop the project. It would be nice to have the developer up front, but it isn't necessary if we have a well defined plan as to how the project should look and feel. I'd suggest even that we start discussing the decision tree here in this email to find out what direction we think future contributors might take and what the best approach would be to this structure. Also, it would be good to spend some research time asking people who are new to the project why they joined and what they'd like to see to make it easier to get involved. I'm guessing some of this research has already commenced/completed. However, I do not have any knowledge. of these resources, please share :) Cheers, Clint <div><div></div><div class="Wj3C7c"> -- Fedora-ambassadors-list mailing list <a href="mailto:Fedora-ambassadors-list@redhat.com">Fedora-ambassadors-list@redhat.com</a> <a href="https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-ambassadors-list" target="_blank">https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-ambassadors-list</a> </div></div></blockquote></div> Hello, I personally think that too many hyperlinks in the project details page should be avoided as they create confusion . A wizard for joining projects will help a lot. Thank You. Yours sincerely, Shambo Bose </div>
