Project community
Permalink to “Project community”The Gobstones project was born at the National University of Quilmes, at Argentina, and has now expanded to other universities in the country, high-schools and even international institutions. Researchers, developers, and students, from all those institution conform what we call the Gobstones Community.
We constantly seek comments and feedback from the community in order to improve, and we consider the members of the community as the major stakeholder of the project.
The community is not exclusive, anyone interested in Gobstones can join the community, and participate. You can see how to join the community at the Communication Section
Future plans
Permalink to “Future plans”Currently the project is open, but we remain a little closed. In the future we expect to be able to have open meetings with the project roadmap on discussion, where all the community can join to hare their ideas and vision, and make a more rich exchange.
Also, we would like to have a formal committee that meets regularly to take the decision, and let the decision making not be only part of the core team's decisions.
We are still learning and working hard to improve the Gobstones Open Source Community. Please share any comments as to how we can improve, they will be greatly appreciated.
