Hi All,
I would like to get people's thoughts on the cost / benefit of continuing
to maintain both the feedhenry and aerogear communities (mailing lists, IRC
channels, web sites etc...). There seems to be a lot of cross over between
the two (the are both mobile focused communities backed primarily by Red
Hat) and I struggle to see what benefit we, or our community members, get
from having our work spread across these two communities...
we can all get behind instead of the current fractured status where it is
unclear what lives where and why.
Just my 2 cents...
Cheers,
John.

Hello,
FYI, once I started this epic to improve and clean up
AeroGear.org
website:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AEROGEAR-1760
If we would like to do it, we need to find out a group that takes
ownership of the clean up. AeroGear people are now more spread than before.
Cheers
