# How rough and ready are we?
|
|
|
|
* Being polished:
|
|
* Why? Look more professional, inviting to e.g. journalists, policy-makers, being an authoritative voice
|
|
* Cons: slows thing down (a lot), makes it harder for community to contribute
|
|
* Being more rough
|
|
* Eases contribution
|
|
* Have stuff public early is good (and pushes us to complete it - when you don't publish you can keep polishing forever)
|
|
|
|
Are there ways we can have both? e.g. allow contribution but flag articles which are finished & polished vs those which are draft still
|
|
|
|
Ans: publish early, publish often and accept being "rougher" though flagging what is polished and not.
|
|
|
|
* We want community contribution and that both necessitates some "rough and ready" material and that form encourages contribution
|
|
* Getting stuff out encourages us to polish and improve it
|
|
* The world is more open to "open source" approach - "not wearing a tie is ok"
|
|
* We can flag material as "polished" and "draft" |
