Any volunteers?

Jakob, will you post some rules for the metas? And then, let's go. The count of postings is rising and rising. :grin:

Hi All meta-keepers:

There could be many different ways of keeping track of the stuff. None is inherently bettter or more correct, I think. BUT. In order to make the metas easily readable and quick to scan, we should try adopting the same "style"

What I do in the two Meta's that I'm keeping should be easy to copy.

- The name of the thread should be "META - projectname"

- maybe start the post with the explanation - the text in small (size9). Copy from my post, or explain yourself

- Then the links - simply copied from the threads. Or "external" information from the web that you find relevant.

- Then title in bold

- Then a short description

- one line space between items to ease reading

- try listing the metas in order of importance - important stuff first

- If comments or pointers are posted by other members, copy/paste those into the main, and leave a new message at the end of the thread for the moderator to clear all messages onto that point..

That should be all?

Take a look at the ssl-meta:

[quote author="kubi"]Do we keep the metas here inside the Lab or are we going to set them into another new forum for a better overview?[/quote]

Let's keep them here for now - if needed, we can easily transplant them to a separate forum.

They're easily found with a search for "meta"

I see that Michael has already kicked off the Vari-Mu section.. Well done..!!

Great. I'll get cracking on the Newbie Explanations and Tools/Test Equipment/Workshop etc.

I got mine started. It's a bit scratchy at the moment but I'm relying on evolution!

I'm sure you ladies & gentlemen will put me on the right track. Doesn't feel like it will be hard work at all.

This is such a good idea and I'm delighted to be helping out - good to feel I'm putting something into the community.
