[Talk-ko] The Mailing List

[Brian McLaughlin]

 We can't help the fact that Koreans don't use mailing lists, but
we(Andrew) took the first step by making our list more accessible to
Koreans by fixing the settings so the Korean text comes through.
Hopefully, we'll eventually have a a more "Korean friendly" community
portal, after all this is Korea. Until then we need to use the tools
that we have, and try to promote them. There already are many Koreans
using OSM that aren't on this mailing list. We need to start
contacting them and inviting them to join. Whether or not they do
their option. Hopefully we can have a greater community soon once we
start bring individuals together.

I like Weley's idea to use this mailing list as a newsletter, to keep
each other update on map changes, as well as to bring important issues
to the forefront so we can all discuss them. I think it would make our
lists easier to read if we delete all text after our comments. We
don't need to repeat the messages over and over again. . This would
make the messages more succinct, and easier to decipher the latest
comments.Maybe we could add issue # to our subject line in case
someone needs to go back and read the original message.

We also need to clean up the wiki. It's become so horrendous that I
don't even want to look at it, much less a Korean. This week I'll try
to separate the Korean and English Text into two pages, then we as a
group can clean it up bit by bit. I just need one Korean to volunteer
to help translate the Korean parts. We'll go at a slow enough pace so
the works not too overwhelming at once.
