Given the current state of NEM, the NEM core team wants to make a few changes in how information is shared among ourselves and with the community. We are making these changes for two reasons. Firstly, there are too many channels of NEM information and it's hard for us (let alone someone new) to figure out where to get all the NEM information. Secondly, we want to be more transparent and reduce the number of things that are discussed "behind closed doors".
Currently, there are four primary channels of communication in use: BTT, NEMFORUM, TRELLO, IRC. Starting today, we will make the following changes:
[li]All important information will be posted on NEMFORUM first. If it is really important, then the information will be cross-posted on BTT (either the full text or just a link to the NEMFORUM post). We are going to double down on the importance of this forum and will make sure that all NEM announcements will happen first on this forum! If you're a NEMster, there's no excuse why you're not here.[/li]
[li]We are phasing out all of the public and redundant trello boards (NEM Alpha, NEM Ecosystem, NEM Promotion) in favor of this forum. Any ongoing discussions in the discarded boards should be moved to the forum.[/li]
With these changes, there will be a single place for discussing NEM and all NEM announcements (this NEMFORUM) and there will be fewer private discussions (increased transparency). Hopefully, these changes will make this forum a more lively place :D.
