So what can we do to make life easier for contributors and users?
Should we have a mailing list? Just use Google communities? (does anyone
actually use communities?)
Set up a discourse forum? It's fairly easy to do on a Digital Ocean server
for $10 a month. Might need to upgrade at some point but $10 wouldn't be
too bad to start with.
Is google groups good enough? Or does it make Void look bad? Personally I
think Void should have a forum that promotes Voidlinux more than Google.
Things I know of that we can do to help void:
Raise awareness - more people = more potential contributors
Contribute package builds
Contribute code to the package manager
Documentation, I still use the Arch WIki whenever I have a Linux related
question.
If we could convince some North American Universities to host a void repo
that would be wonderful.
Anyway, discuss.
