Status Reports

As part of an initiative to keep our users up to date the
User Relations
Project is going to feature a yearly "Status of
Gentoo" article in the
GWN (hopefully a series of articles if we can gather enough
information). This will entail getting all the projects to
ensure their
respective /proj page is up-to-date and creating a (short)
status report.

I ask everyone to please look at the Project Listing[1] and
do a few things:

1) Follow the link to the project homepage of any project
you are a
member of - make sure the project page is up-to-date. Things
to look for
are: members, description, tasks, sub-projects, leads,
resources.

Please correct any information that is wrong. If you don't
want to fool
with the xml then submit your changes as plain text directly
to
curtis119gentoo.org and I will take care of updating it for
you.

If you update it yourself or if it is already up-to-date
please make
sure to email[2] us or ping curtis119 on irc to let us know.

2) If you are a lead of any project please submit a 1-3
paragraph status
report (or assign it to a member of your project who shows
interest) to
User Relations[2].

The status report should include one paragraph (more if you
can) about
each of the following: what the project has accomplished in
the past
year, what the project is presently working on and any plans
the project
may have for the future.

You can also include any other facts about the project you
wish. The
more information you give the better it is for our users.

Some projects have recently submitted status reports on this
list over
the last 2 months, if you are one of those projects please
resend the
report to us[2].

To make it as simple as possible please submit your report
as plain text
and we will do the guideXML formatting.

I will give everyone a few weeks to do this and then I will
start
pinging on irc, sending emails and generally being a pain in
the rear end.


Thanks in advance
