How to get Mozillaindia.org email? Is it distruble or selected and for specific person only?

When we set up Mozilla India.org, it was randomly distributed to the people
who contributed to setting it up. IMHO we still dont have a policy on who
should get one and on what conditions.

It is a good question you have brought forth Sayak. I propose that all Reps
from India should have a mozillaindia.org email. Those who dont want the
burden of multiple email addresses can get an mozillaindia.org alias for
their existing emails.

Yes that sounds like a good policy to begin with.
We should not hand out a mozillaindia.org email account to anyone who
wants. So how do we define an objective criteria: Remo is a good candidate!

Thats what I propose. I am open to alternatives and more suggestions. And
together we can all decide what model to follow.

Pls stop spamming me and everybody else on yr private email interactions.
DONT PRESS REPLY TO ALL. JUST REPLY TO THE PERSON YOU WANT TO INDIVIDUALLY.
This is getting very annoying.

PLS STOP EMAILING ME- UNLESS ITS A GROUP INVITE TO SOMETHING IMPORTANT. Im
not interested in yr twitter and dribble drabble and private conversations
pls. So STOP Spamming me. Will the group admin pls do something about this?
- Im not interested in receiving all this rubbish on this email list. Its
junking my in box. Pls control. Pls STOP emailing me. Im not interested. I
am muting you. But that doesnt work either as somebody else keeps replying.

Thank you

Good suggestion Kinshuk.
Every Rep should have a MozillaIndia email, plus all the active volunteers
who may not (yet) be Reps.

On this note, I'd also like to get my sou...@mozillaindia.org mail aliased
to debl...@gmail.com.

True that! Every Rep should have a MozillaIndia email. The problem I see
here is that how do you define who is an active volunteer and who decides
that a person is an active volunteer. A decision like that can be biased or
can be taken as a biased one by people even when it is not.

Hi,
There are many scenarios where if we want to represent Mozilla India we are
asked about an official email id. Looking on this and this nice approach to
provide mozillaindia.org i personally think that a ReMo would be a good
candidate to get one.

Initially the idea was to give @mozillaindia.org email id to all the
accepted Mozilla Reps[1]. But as we see the program for the last one year,
not all Reps are active. Also, our Mozilla India community has
contributors that include student reps, localizers, testers, marketing
volunteers, coders etc, who are not Mozilla reps but are active[2] &
core[3] contributors.

It may be a good idea to give out Mozilla India email id's to active[2] &
core-contributors[3] that include Mozilla reps, Student reps, Localization
team and all other community members.

Mozillaindia.org website will be renovated to a new theme and will be moved
to a new server[4] soon. In between, let's work on the ideas/criteria[5]
for the community members to get the regional email handle. The same can be
listed on the website for anyone to refer to. :)

That's how it should be IMHO. But what I fail to understand is who decides
that who is an active contributor/volunteer or not. Any ideas on that?

Its not the problem to decide if he or she is an activecontributor or
not...all mozilla project are easily searchable and trackble where we
can easily found it, example if anyone contributing SUMO we can go to
sumo forum and check how he contributin, we can go #sumo irc channel.
Or there are various way to find out. If no one able to do it, i can
help to it.:D

Hey all,
It will be nice,if the decision is taken by the active mozilla
rep or student rep or core contributor from the respective region to decide
an user as an active contributor.

Great idea, Swarnava & Gauthamraj! existing active contributors or may be
even paid staff can vouch for the community members based on the
area/project they are involved with.

Hi all,
I'm sure there must be some hierarchy to which every contributor is a part.
I don't think it will be much difficult to determine
who all are the active one's & who are idle's and i'm agreed with Vineel
that it will be good idea to give the id's to the active
one's. :)

Hey Guys,

That sounds like a great idea. We can also vote for regional heads who can
together form a core committee who would be in charge of not only deciding
who are active but also looking after other stuff like deciding on various
issues and making decisions regarding Mozilla India.

Sayak

Hi Sayak ,

The idea of making core committee was already initialized by Kinshuk .
Later on I have also written a mail to Vineel & William .I think they are
the best person to decide that. If we form a committee , then our Indian
Community will get a better shape.

active volunteers.Consider advancing to ReMo program, to take your interest
on Mozilla to the next level .

+1 Abhishek
You are absolutely right. But, MozillaIndia.org e-mail
id's will give active contributors an unique identity and may inspire
casual contributors to dive deeper into the Mozilla Project.

Contributors are known by the work and not by mail accounts nicks of
contributors are far more useful, known and recognized.

Hey Folks,

Could anyone please tell me what is going on? Every time i'm logging in I'm
seeing these emails being posted against my id, whereas I DID NOT SEND
these emails.

Neither did I send the previous email regarding the email IDs nor this one.

Could the moderators of the group pleas e look into the matter. I even
changed all the security settings of my email id.

Can you please define active volunteers? Does this include people who
organize various events only? or it also includes the programmers who
are/will be contributing to Mozilla independently?

I strongly agree with the point that all Moz contributors and Remos
should get Mozillaindia.org email id, it'll definately help us to
recognize each other and reduce workload of multiple email id's,

contributors also???
