Launchpad.net is a tool that has been developped by Canonical, who manage the developpement of Ubuntu to have a process that is as open as possible, while very well comprehensive too. It allows to define the specification, see who does what, manage translations through the web ... It can be used for any free software too. I suppose you'll understand more with an example Look at https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+spec/student-control-panel-completion This page describes the specification of a tool (student-control-panel) available in Edubuntu that allows to manage the displays of the students. It could be useful to the other projects too. In order to develop this student-control-panel tool, specifications have been written, people are concerned ... Evrything is supposedly managed within launchpad.net is this clearer ? Nicolas -- Nicolas Pettiaux - email: nicolas.pettiaux@ael.be
