I think that iCal is really our biggest stumbling block - whenever |
12 |
anybody points out that there is no good FOSS group calendaring solution |
13 |
available all the zealots point to a bunch of programs that can |
14 |
read/write ical, neglecting the fact that these programs usually have no |
15 |
collaborative capabilities whatsoever. |

Personally I have no problems with leveraging Google tools, but only for |
18 |
non-essential matters and for document creation. Final documents should |
19 |
be placed on the website in an open format (preferably just as website |
20 |
content). So, if QA wants to write out a set of policies and do it |
21 |
using Google docs, that is fine, as long as devs aren't expected to use |
22 |
Google docs to read the policies once they're ready to be followed. |

I did link my g.o email to my gmail account, so anybody needing to share |
25 |
a document or whatever with me should be able to do so in this way. |
