This group was opened some years ago to be a place for collaboration on open
source projects, such as python-patch on Google Code. The group is dead, so
is it now transforming to generic chatter / mini-blog / log about what everybody
(me?) are doing, so that people are not disappointed when not receiving replies.
Why not blog? Blogger interface suxx, and
Ghost platform with Markdown
support is not released yet. Writing good, interesting blog posts with puctures
requires a fair amount of time and dedication. Group posts doesn't have to be
good or useful. Everyone can contribute, markup and search are sane and
consistent.
There is a chance that this is another dead initiative, and it's ok. Life is a
roguelike.
