[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] (too) short communications lines

Hi,

There was a talk about having short comunication lines within maemo (e.g Tigert being able
to walk to Ferenc's desk to get his wiki login restored) on IRC today, which reminded me
of the demise of the previous X.org:

A long, long time ago all notorious X dudes were herded into a building to work on X
fulltime, which resulted in a highly efficient workflow, since they could just cross the
hall and talk to each other. They got used to working efficiently that they stopped
discussing things on IRC or mailinglists since that slowed them down. The community got
pissed and not long after that x.org 'died'.

This is something to think about for maemo. I am getting the impression that things are
improving up north, but it can't hurt to keep the x.org history in mind.

regards,

KOen
