I'm not sure how closely tied ownCloud wants to be with KDE, but you may also want to talk to the KDE www team as well. They are making some major changes to the <a href="http://kde.org">kde.org</a> infrastructure. <div>

Hey,<br>
<br>
I really don't understand why I don't get any answers... I know everybody is<br>
busy but come on, I sent my message 5 days ago! And you can't tell you don't<br>
accept/need help ;-)<br></blockquote><div><br></div></div><div>Hey Damien in the last message you sent 5 days ago, you clearly suggested the main points that you are going to implement. And these are very much acceptable to me. </div>

I think Florian didn't get any response too. That is not very welcoming! But<br>
maybe I'm wrong here if some people answered him privately. My apologies if<br>
it's the case.<br>
<br>
Maybe the reason is I didn' t introduce myself properly and you don't trust me<br>
enough to do the website. If I'm right here you should have told me! Having no<br>
answer is really demotivating! But it's ok for now I still have a lot of it<br>
;-)<br>

Anyway, here is a more complete introduction if it's what you were waiting<br>
for :<br>
I'm Damien Tardy-Panis. I'm 22, in the last year of my studies as a software<br>
engineer (Ensimag, Grenoble, France). Currently, I'm in my final internship in<br>
Amsterdam where I do some web development using Magento (e-commerce).<br>
I've been helping the KDE Promo Team for about 1 year now, mainly with the<br>
cration of the booklet :<br>
<a href="http://community.kde.org/images.community/5/5f/Kde_booklet_ver8.pdf" target="_blank">http://community.kde.org/images.community/5/5f/Kde_booklet_ver8.pdf</a>.<br>
<br>
Allright, now I'm really looking forward to seeing some answers from you guys.<br>
If you preferably use the IRC to communicate, just tell me I'll come (even if<br>
I prefer the mailing list for these kind of introduction).<br>
<br></blockquote></div><div>I would suggest you to spend some time on IRC channel : #owncloud so that we can have some realtime discussion about the website. And if you are stuck with some part of website and want community help then you can get much faster response over IRC.</div>
<div class="im">
<div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
What I would like to know at least is : Would you accept me to request to open<br>
a project at <a href="http://projects.kde.org" target="_blank">projects.kde.org</a> to start an owncloud website ? So that we can<br>
work together with those who want to help with that website.<br>
<br></blockquote></div><div>SInce it is a Open Source project and others may also be interested in contributing so i think that we should have some kind of project that everybody can access and contribute to it. So i would suggest to get a new project at <a href="http://projects.kde.org" target="_blank">projects.kde.org</a> </div>
<div><div></div><div class="h5">

As I said, the website would be just the first thing I want to do (I think this<br>
is the most urgent task). If everything is fine with the team and the project,<br>
I'll do some development after. Just like Florian wanted to do, right ?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Damien<br>
