oh -yeah - and if you read the letter it says that we're going to give
the the passwords and urls to people once they respond. this way people can forward the email and it won't screw everything up. and it's a good way of initiating a first contact - with the person that sent them the invite. mike On 12/15/05, Michael Lenczner <[hidden email]> wrote: > tracey and I spent some time this aft working on the letter. > > -check final letter - done > -decide who's sending out to who - done > -process of invitations + passwords - done > > > -checking listserve work - not done. > -translating the invite - not done > -add mini-profiles at bottom of the invite -not done > > pat and steph - can you add your profiles and pat - make sure the list > works when you have? > |

I've added my brief bio to the bottom of the invite, just Stephene's to
go I think. Seems like it might be useful to provide some basic instructions in the email responses we send to folks who respond to the invite, so I put these together as a base.

- translating the invite - DONE. You could have a look if you want : http://civicaccess.ca/wiki/Launch/Invitation/FrenchDraft
- add mini-profiles at bottom of the invite - DONE. Those profiles were also translated in the french version. When would be the best moment to send this ? Stef |

Great! You're gooooood!
How do we translate this though - de développement open source - de développement logitiel libre? Perhaps first thing in the New Year we can send out the invite? If we do it now we are competing with people tying up their loose ends? what'ya all think? Stephane Guidoin wrote: >- translating the invite - DONE.

Logiciel libre is widely accepted but I don't like it :p It means both developping software and developping the philisophy that supports open source. >Perhaps first thing in the New Year we can send out the invite?

And if we do it just after New Year, we might catch people whose new year resolution is get involved about open data :D I think people will be more open to receive this type of proposal right after the new year instead of before. >Stephane Guidoin wrote: > > > >>- translating the invite - DONE.

Hehe, I'm not weird ! :-]
It's just that I don't think that "libre" means what open source software are. And also I don't like this because it sounds like "le monde libre" (free world) as is the others were a bunch of communists or what ever you want. Open source does not have the monopoly of being "libre". Open source says what it is, "logiciel libre" doesn't But I changed it in the invitation in french (God, some Anglo-bastards want to write more french than I !!! ;o) Stef Michael Lenczner wrote: >the proper translation is logiciels libres. even if stephane doesn't like it. > >(you're weird, stephane!) > > |

Open source says what it is, "logiciel libre" doesn't okay - but for the sake of posterity (and for tracey) I'm sure that we will have people that are motivated by both the "open" and the "libre" motivation/argument. Yes - they're different, but I'm a bit of both. > > But I changed it in the invitation in french > > (God, some Anglo-bastards want to write more french than I !!! ;o) > (i think he's talking about me) ;-) > Stef > > Michael Lenczner wrote: > > >the proper translation is logiciels libres. even if stephane doesn't like it. > > > >(you're weird, stephane!) > > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > CivicAccess-discuss mailing list > [hidden email] > http://civicaccess.ca/mailman/listinfo/civicaccess-discuss_civicaccess.ca > |
