Rolando:
@Ilja - is something like that planned after the move to a new server?

Yes it is. Don't worry, you'll be the first to know ;)

@Danny - I'd like to join you in the Marketing group :-)

I am a professional designer and standards based coder, and can contribute in that regard. I run a successful web design company and use this as my internal project management/client collaboration tool, so I am the perfect tester.

I will take the initiative and ask to launch the Marketing group.

Can we start this in an aC install somewhere?

I am watching the aC development since a few weeks and really welcome Ilja's idea to distribute the work on more shoulders (http://www.activecollab.com/pages/31/contribute/).

In my opinion the first step to do this is to get a project structure where the different people (with their different ideas and skills) can share "their" (sub) project. The second step should be to set up a work environment for these teams. This should - at least - include a wiki, an aC installation (of course) and a mailing list for discussion.

But first things first: this is my proposal for an - incomplete - project structure and some possible content / groups. Any feedback is welcome:

1. The aC project
- strategy / goals of the project
- road map
- project internal communication (like planet.activecollab.com)


2. Development
- aC core development
- aC framework
- plug-in development
- bug tracking /qa
- theming


3. Documentation
- end user documentation (in various languages, see 4.)
- developer documentation
- non-coding development how-tos (themes, translation etc)


4. Internationalization
- translation
- local user groups


5. Marketing
- target group analysis
- visual style guide development (including logo, icons etc ... designers onboard!)
- web site -> communication with the various target groups
- marketing material


There is some inspiration for the relaunch of the GNOME project at http://desdeamericaconamor.org/blog/node/303. What do you think?

Best regards
Roland
