: Infrastructure

There are a lot of projects, which you can use, but not every one is ready to be deployed. Some are frameworks, some are just not ready (yet).

Add a "how to contribute" field to all projects

Almost nowhere is a description or invitation to contribute to a project. It would be great if this could be encouraged by the infrastructure with a "how to contribute" field/page.

Provide a public Sametime service for OpenNTF users

OpenNTF should provide a Sametime service for OpenNTF users to interact via instant messaging. This doesn't necessarily mean that OpenNTF needs to set up it's own service but could also mean that OpenNTF leverages and integrates other services (e.g. LotusLive, bleedyellow, etc.)
