1 Hello,
2
3 Currently a number of developers have engaged Google Apps Team Edition
4 for gentoo.org. However Team Edition does not come with gmail and a
5 subset of Team Edition users would like to host their gentoo.org mail
6 on gmail.
7 Activating Standard Edition is free and likely requires minimal
8 configuration on dev.gentoo.org to setup. Standard Edition comes with
9 Google Docs, Google Calendar, Google Mail, Google Sites, Google Video,
10 and probably a bunch of other stuff we could turn on.
11
12 This service would be opt-in (only devs that want an account get one).
13 Infra should continue to offer standard mail services on
14 smtp.gentoo.org.
15
16 All content that is what I would term 'of value' to the community
17 should be available anonymously; that is you should not need to sign
18 up for a Google Account to be able to access documents in a read-only
19 fashion. Writing documents will require sign-in (similarly to how the
20 calendar works in a previous thread.)
21
22 This thread is primarily engaged in gauging interest in such a setup.
23 Please reply if you are interested (or go vote on the bug.)
