Re: Contacting Java packaging team

I'd like to officially contact all our teams to learn about potential
issues that might affect your work. I would love to learn how you
organise / share your workload. If you do some regular meetings - be it
on IRC, video conference or whatever I'm interested in joining one of
your next meetings.
That's a good idea, thank you.
I have some specific questions to the Java packaging team.
- Do you feel good when doing your work in Java packaging team?
Absolutely
- Do you consider the workload of your team equally shared amongst its
members?
No but that's not an issue, everyone scratches the itches he wants.
- Do you have some strategy to gather new contributors for your team?
Not really.
- In my packaging work I frequently contacted Java packaging team and
usually got help very quickly - thanks a lot for this. The only
thing I was not happy about is the fact that the team decided to make
the usage of Salsa CI extra hard. I've contacted the Salsa CI team
before and explicitly asked about this policy. They do not understand
and recommend to run Salsa CI as default but by no means even hide
the button to switch it on. Would you mind changing your policy about
this?
There is no policy regarding Salsa CI in the Java Team, anyone who
wishes to use it is free to do so. Personally, I do not because it
doesn't add value to my workflow. I'm also not a fan of the IRC spam
induced, and in times of energy sobriety I feel that's a non-essential
tool we can do without.
- Can I do anything for you?
Just keep the good work :)
