I am writing this just to TUSG for the moment.

I have been copying Kheng Hui Yeo (icedwater at gmail.com) and linuxNUS
core team (coeteam at linuxnus.org) on most of our emails w/ Ho Fucai of
NUS-SoC on the subject. Kheng is also going to contact Ho Fucai of
NUS-SoC Computing Club.

We ARE suffering the crossing and lagging effects of using email as our
only communications channel. For example, Heidir is working on a Google
Docs-based survey of users, but yesterday Ho Fucai said that he wanted
to do this via email from inside NUS-SoC. I saw that message, but I do
not recall if Ho Fucai used "reply all" when he responded to my email.
Perhaps not.

We need to centralize communications. Otherwise, we are going to
duplicate and waste effort, because someone who really does need to know
is always going to get left off a CC: line.

Google Docs is one option, but there are limits to what those using an
email account other than gmail can access. Perhaps one of the first
projects for the new TUSG site can be a project management module and
mailing list?
