Status	In progress

Description

This project is to go over the projects and make sure that the list of active projects is correct and clear to read.

Purpose

We currently saw the problem of having too much projects that people have started, but not enough people to do them. We want to find a way to advertise the projects better (using the project page), make them more welcoming and have a better overview for the people actually working on the projects.

Events

The project started in Pirate_Lab/Meeting/28_03_2020

To do list

• Improve the description of the project form
  • For instance, explain that the workgroup should be an existing wiki page
• Fix a bug in the active projects list
  • Sub-projects which have their parent project marked as closed are still displayed in the active projects list. It looks like this is a bug in the way the project list is displayed. Ideally, we should fix this, but on the other hand the inconvenience is not big...
• When all children of a project are closed, close the parent project as well ?

Projects that need actions

Closed

These projects were closed, but we should still contact the people who were working on that, just to be sure.

• Mermaid
• MissionStatement
• ITSquad/Web

Open

These projects are still open, but we need more information because they are empty, or we don't know what to do about them.

• FinanceSquad: empty project
• Crew BW/Kayoux: pirates abandoned the project, but the citizen list is still ongoing. Ask Crew BW what should we do with that page...
