Hi Jan and welcome on board.

Thanks for the suggestions, and we actually need to speed up now, so here
are my comments:

1. trello seems good to me too, and since we don't have any argument
against it, we can just go for it. Any volunteer to admin that?

2. I don't think anyone here wants to use Alfresco WCM. Second point,
Martin says that we should drink our own nectar, however, Alfresco is an
ECM, not a WCM, so I don't think it's a problem to use something completely
independent in the beginning, BUT, with the goal of an integration with
Alfresco in the near future. That's why I was thinking about DokuWiki,
because it's document based, and not extra database. I think we need a
separate thread to decide on our Web platform.

3. Jan, it's true that orderofthebee.org can be about any software,
however, Richard has a point regarding branding, and over there we are
completely dependent of Alfresco as company. Another point is that, in the
worse case scenario, Alfresco could go closed source, and then we would
need to take other actions, and not having to change the domain name would
be better.

That's it for now.
cheers
Boriss
