You have probably enjoyed the large knowledge database freely available in the eZ Community. New comers, experienced as well as gurus always have something to learn. How about you teaching them something ?

With the recent launch of eZ Publish's new Community Portal it is time to call for all designers to take out their pencils and paper. It is time for a design contest! Do you have creativity running through your veins, and do you want to see your design applied to the new community portal at http://share.ez.no ? You should not wait any longer, participate, have fun and as a result get your creativity exposed to the broad audience of the eZ Publish Community and... get rewarded for your work :)

A few of our members held a team meeting on the 26th of february to discuss the design contest we will start soon. Below are the meeting minutes.

Hello eZ Ecosystem!

I am delighted to announce that the first features, resulting of our common work is now available for you to use!

Why was this team gathered today ?

This meeting is inline with the continuous will from eZ Systems to focus on the eZ Community. This focus is up to 100%, the dedicated Community Manager (Nicolas Pastorino) is here to grow the community, make it an even more attractive exchange place, and make sure it is a helpful, fun place to step by when working with eZ Publish.

The newly born http://share.ez.no is a tool for you, by you. Getting involved in making it evolve gives you the chance to share a bit of your skills and motivation in a concrete manner, keeping in mind the will to address the prominent needs of the whole. All participants to this meeting volunteered to be part of the share.ez.no team by answering positively to the call for participants here http://share.ez.no/blogs/ez/welcome-to-the-new-ez-community-portal. Five of them are not eZ employees, are long-time, active members, and decided to give a hand when they can, sharing their time to make share.ez.no yours. And they do have busy schedules, as we all do.

On behalf of the community: thank you.

As any team, some organization is required. This first meeting helped nail down the main ideas and objectives, sketch out the organization, and understand how we'll work together. Enforcing total transparency and openness, all meeting minutes and activity reports will be published on the dedicated "Share.ez.no team" blog on this website.

We need more hands and volunteers. So if you want to get involved, even for small tasks, drop an email at community [at] ez [dot] no, we'll happily share the job :)
