Hi, everyone. |
2 |
|
3 |
I think it would be really great if we could publish a summary of |
4 |
(good) things that happened in Gentoo in 2020. We weren't able to |
5 |
maintain Gentoo Weekly Newsletter, nor Monthly. However, we might be |
6 |
able to manage at least a yearly Newsletter ;-). |

|
8 |
I know I'm going to regret this but I volunteer to take care of |
9 |
combining and publishing the data. Nevertheless, I'd really appreciate |
10 |
if you could reply to this mail with ideas of what you think would be |
11 |
worth listing. I'd also use a native English speaker for editorial |
12 |
help. |
13 |
|

|
15 |
Please reply with your ideas in the form of: |
16 |
|
17 |
[sort-key] **A short sentence summarizing the change.** 1-3 sentences |
18 |
of detailed explanation. |
19 |
|
20 |
I think we'll publish this on the website, so please use Markdown |
21 |
and possibly link to the relevant projects. The idea is that the users |
22 |
can skim through the changes in bold, and decide whether they want to |
23 |
read on. |
24 |
|
25 |
|
26 |
Example: |
27 |
|
28 |
[dist-kernel] **The [Distribution Kernel](https://...) project was |
29 |
launched to install kernels directly from ebuilds.** To lower |
30 |
the entry barrier and maintenance effort, the project also provides |
31 |
a stock configuration for popular architectures based on Fedora. |
32 |
|
33 |
|
34 |
I think we'll then split it into a few groups. I'm thinking of: |
35 |
|
36 |
1. New developers (yay!). |
37 |
2. Major changes (focused on things impacting end users). |
38 |
3. Other changes. |

WDYT? |
