Just some personal notes...

  • edition restricted to a couple of people

Things to consider

• Global open wiki, would become the main resource for infos
  • Interesting info shared through forum or mailing-list should land there too
• Move each individual project to Git (github or gitorious? they probably make external contributions by fork easier than Google code, but pay attention to existing issue trackers)
• Keep only one single mailing-list? or rename nfc-tools mailing list into libnfc(-users) and keep libnfc-devel separate?
• Forum: do something about SPAM
