RE: Introducing the SteemCommunity Organization
Nice! First time I look at Steem main repo, I'm shocked that there is many stalled branch and have been wondering how they keep maintaining the project 🤔. Glad that there is an initiative to make friendly forked repo on it.
Ah yes, is there Pull_Request_Template for it to welcome new contributor (or just to help it separating into multiple categories)?
Also for the issues board, do you plan to disable and encourage the new contributor to look/discuss at original issues board? Or want to keep it enabled but make a strict rule to always link original issues?
One of the first things I did in the new fork was cleaning up 150 stalles branches 🤷♂️ we can always get them upstream if we need but the fork is much cleaner.
I plan on improving contribution documentation but the more we change, the more annoying it might be to get things merged upstream as we have to cherry-pick things. But generally I plan for this fork to have as much help for contributors as possible.
Regarding issue boards, I enabled it so that the fork issues can reflect what developers work on and so we can asdign things, post bounties etc. And referencing issues from upstream is encouraged but by no means required.
But that is just my take. I hope many who join are vocal about tgeir opinion on how it should be run and we do great things together. Discussion openly happening on chain is in any case encouraged.
