Include Github ribbon: Fork me

[teleyinex]

@nigini @rgrp I was thinking that it could be interesting to get more people involved if we include the Github ribbon Fork me in the top right corner linking to this site. What do you think?

I would be -1 on this. If this were the software site I'd be +1 but this is the site of the service (primarily used by non-coders).

What this raises is the question of whether we should (already) have 2 sites: one for the service and one for the software.

[teleyinex]

Well, one option is to use the Github pages to create the software site (it is a free service).

[rufuspollock]

Good idea. In fact I have a suggestion. We have a setup where we build okfn site pages and they appears at http://okfnlabs.org/{project-name} (which is somewhat nicer than {xxx}.github.com/{project}. What do you think of me forking this repo to okfn and building gh-pages there ...?

1- About getting more people, I don't have much experience managing opensource software, but I tend to think that's easier to work on first drafts with smaller groups.

2- The commented separation would be between project information for users (service) and project development (software)?

[rufuspollock]

No the distinction would be between the software and the site running the software (i.e. the place users would go to do microtasking work). I don't think there is much point having a forkme ribbon on the latter but think it would be useful on the former.

Given low priority and debate about location I propose closing as WONTFIX for the present. Anyone disagree?

[teleyinex]

+1 to WONTFIX :)

[rufuspollock]

WONTFIX.
