As mentioned in issue #12
of the Brave GNU World a lot of developers are too busy to get in
touch with me. Once I make the contact they are usually very willing
to talk about it but it needs this "little push" to get them
going. This is the job of the scouts. Everyone can be a "Brave GNU World Scout" taking care that interesting people don't get left out in the Brave GNU World. All it takes is to mail the maintainers and send them a specific list of questions. The following list has proven itself to be very effective over the last year as it allows me to get a feeling for the project. So just take the following lines and send them to the maintainer of a project that you consider "Brave GNU World worthy."
By the way: please do not mailbomb the authors with these lists. If they get it a few times it shows that there is a lot of interest in their project. But if the same person sends the same mail ten times it becomes annoying. Oh - and of course authors/maintainers are very welcome to just take this list, fill it out and send it to me! .-)
