Mailing list for Group/Project Leads and suggestion to put group/project pages under source control

[Martijn Verburg]

Hi all,

We had a discussion recently in the Adoption Group around having its
members keeping project/group pages fresh and relevant. The first
experiment for this was Project Valhalla
<http://openjdk.java.net/projects/valhalla/> (which was well received by
that project).

The discussion then moved onto:

1.) How to offer this page overhaul service for all groups/projects
2.) How to create a patch/review cycle for the pages

My proposal is:

1.) Create a new mailing list that contains all group/project leads so that
there is a communication channel for offers like this to the entire OpenJDK
project.

On further thought, perhaps the discuss <discuss at openjdk.java.net> mailing
list is the right place? I'm not sure whether all project/group leads are
subscribed to this list. If it is the right place then l will post the
Adoption Group's offer there.

2.) Have the OpenJDK project/group pages placed under mercurial source
control which will enable OpenJDK developers (Adoption Group volunteers in
particular) to submit patches to those pages in order to keep them relevant
and up to date.  This has the advantage of there being an automatic review
step before publishing.

Are either of those two suggestions sensible and/or doable?

Cheers,
Martijn
