    Proposal Summary

    • Replace "meet each other" with "be organised".

    Goals

    • 1 Replace "Centralization of the demand for help from different current project maintainers and core contributors to thereby avoid fragmentation based on native languages and project niches;" with "Centralisation of demands for help in current projects by maintainers and contributors. This should avoid fragmentation due to language differences and project isolation."
    • 2 Replace "the external will to contribute" with "contributions".

    Needed Manpower and Roles

    This table seems to need more careful consideration and is presently not clear or consistent.

    [Proposal author's note: the proposal is still in a initial state and it needs more collective discussion bout Manpower and roles - Date: 2011-05-23]

    Workflow After Implementation [Remove "of the Tool"]

    • Remove "wannabe".
    [Proposal author's note: I'd prefer to keep "wannabe" in order to make a clear distinction beetween potential/new contributors and current ones - Date: 2011-05-23]
    • Replace "communicate" with "communicates".

    Primary Classification of Tasks

    • Again, remove "wannabe".
    • Replace "dev" with "development".

    Secondary Classification of Tasks

    Again, remove "wannabe".

    Granularity of Classification of the Requests for Help

    Again, remove "wannabe".

    Summary

    Finally, if we are to provide documents in English (as I hope we are) then we must decide to adopt either British English (used in this discussion), International English (where for example we would write "centralisation" as in British English) or American English as used in this document (where for example we would write "centralization").

    It would be my sincere hope that we would adopt either British English, or failing that International English and should avoid over-Americanisation. I do, however, accept and understand that spell-checkers are often default set to American English rather than any other.

    [Proposal author's note: Well, I'm not enough skilled in distinguishing American and International English, so feel free to give homogeneity to the text where needed - Date: 2011-05-23]
