I haven’t talked about UserBase for a while, but it’s still actively growing.\u00a0 We now have 749 pages of content, not counting discussion pages.\u00a0 I suspect that a lot of the recent growth is down to the efforts of Claus_chr, Qiii2006 and Yurchor, who have all been busily translating and they’ve recently been joined by Alisha and Caig.<\/p>\n
The other good news is that we have had more than 1.33 million views of UserBase pages – something to be proud of.\u00a0 We now have 500 registered users, but nowhere near that number actively contributing.\u00a0 However, I’ve decided that from time to time I’ll publish the list of top 10 contributors.\u00a0 So here is the first edition:<\/p>\n

Yes, I know that’s eleven, but it wouldn’t be fair to separate the last two.\u00a0 An Overall Top Ten contribution list would contain mostly the same names.\u00a0 You can see from the list above that it wouldn’t take much to get you into the week’s top ten.\u00a0 Let’s see if the list is noticeably different next time I write.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, there are still a number of applications for which we have little or no information.\u00a0 Let’s see whether, during October, we can complete the list of entries for the Applications\/Internet section.\u00a0 We need pages for Choqok, Blogilo, KRDC, Krfb, KVpnc, and Kdebluetooth.\u00a0 If you are not confident with mediawiki markup and want help, you can find me (annew) on IRC most days.<\/p>\n
Last month I was asked to jointly moderate the Office & Productivity forum, which of course has led to me spending more time in the forums than I had done previously.\u00a0 I’ve never been a forum-lover, but I’m impressed with this forum.\u00a0 It does seem much more pleasant and helpful than forums I’ve visited in the past.\u00a0 I’ve been giving user support on mailing lists for several years, and for the first time I’m seriously thinking of leaving them.\u00a0 After a year where I’ve watched general manners and behaviour deteriorate to downright rudeness it has, thankfully, quietened down.\u00a0 That’s the good news.\u00a0 The bad news is that almost every distro-related list seems to be full of bike-shedding now.\u00a0 There are few questions where I can help, and I wonder if I can justify the time given, for so little result.<\/p>\n
One last thing – this week I have converted the desktops of two non-tech users to KDE 4.2.\u00a0 They both use Mandriva, so I hope to get them on 4.3 next month, when Mandriva 2010 comes out.\u00a0 One of the users is still on holiday, so I’ll have to wait for reaction there.\u00a0 The other user just carried on using the same few apps as always, and apart from a small panic about where to find the shutdown button (his first look at kickoff, and didn’t immediately see that it was tabbed), had no reaction at all.\u00a0 The other user is a little more demanding, so likely to have more questions.\u00a0 The next couple of weeks should be interesting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
