NCSE's executive director Eugenie C. Scott spoke on science education at the Innovation 2008 conference, and video of her talk is now available (from 7:40 to 27:15) on-line.
A recent survey among Eastern Orthodox laity in the United States provides interesting data on their attitudes toward creationism and evolution. According to the report (PDF), published as Alexei D. Krindatch, The Orthodox Church Today (Patriarch Athenagoras Orthodox Institute, 2008), the survey was conducted from September 2007 to May 2008. Information was gathered by a mail survey of a nationally representative sample of lay members of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of North America (GOA) and the Orthodox Church in America (OCA), the two largest Orthodox denominations in the United States. There were nearly 1000 respondents from 103 parishes.
Writing in the Houston Chronicle (October 22, 2008), the chief executive officer of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, Alan I. Leshner, deplores the recent appointment of three antievolutionists to a committee charged with reviewing a draft of Texas's state science standards. "The new standards will shape how science education is taught in Texas for the next decade, and it would be a terrible mistake to water down the teaching of evolution in any way," he writes, adding, "At a time when most educators are working to prepare students for 21st century jobs, the board members' action threatens to confuse students, divide communities and tarnish Texas' reputation as an international science and technology center."
"The State Board of Education's decisions in the coming months will affect both the college preparation and future job qualifications of our children. Our students deserve a sound education that includes the latest findings of scientific research and excludes ideas that have failed to stand up to scientific scrutiny." That was the message of the 21st Century Science Coalition's advisory committee -- Daniel I. Bolnick, R. E. Duhrkopf, David M. Hillis, Ben Pierce, and Sahotra Sarkar -- delivered in twin op-eds recently published in two Texas newspapers, the Waco Tribune (October 19, 2008), and the Austin American-Statesman (October 21, 2008).
NCSE Supporter Francisco Ayala was profiled in the November 2008 issue of Scientific American. "After some 30 years of proselytizing about evolution to Christian believers, the esteemed evolutionary biologist at the University of California, Irvine, has honed his arguments to a fine point," Sally Lehrman writes. "The 74-year-old Ayala is preparing for an exceptionally busy 2009. The year marks the bicentennial of Charles Darwin's birthday and the sesquicentennial of the publication of On the Origin of Species, and the battle over the teaching of evolution is sure to heat up. Ayala says the need is especially great for scientists to engage religious people in dialogue."

Further with JesusGods offer to you is that you can be born-again. All your sins will be forgiven and forgotten; today will be the best day of your life and tomorrow will be better. Have you ever had a better offer?
|Audio Options:
Further with Jesus
It's important to understand why things are the way they are. Why is the world polluted with evil? Theft, rape, violence, murder, lying, hatred, bitterness, fornication, adultery, homosexuality, bestiality, sickness, deformity, mental illness, depression, and more: who is responsible? Have I participated? Is there a way to escape?
As far as you and I are concerned, it all began in the Garden of Eden nearly 6,000 years ago. Our great-grandparents, Adam and Eve, were created by God to live forever. [As an aside, some scientists in the study of longevity have come to the conclusion that the human cell should be able to renew itself indefinitely.] God had commanded Adam and Eve just one DON'T, found in Genesis 2:17:
But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
GOD SAID, Don't eat the forbidden fruit or in that day you shall surely die.
One day in the Garden, Satan spoke through the serpent to Eve. He challenged the credibility of God's Word and suggested to Eve that God was a liar. Satan told Eve that she wouldn't die if she ate of the fruit, but would live forever like God. Eve chose to believe the lie, and Adam followed her lead. They died spiritually that very day—just as God had said—but lived on many years in the flesh before they died physically as well. The Bible speaks about our condition before salvation, in Ephesians 2:1, "And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins." The basic fact is that we were spiritually stillborn, spiritually dead. Our parents (Adam and Eve) no longer carried the seed of life, therefore could not pass it on. Eve and Adam sold their progeny to Satan, the prince of the power of the air.
Mankind was sold, therefore mankind had to be bought back; thus one of Jesus Christ's titles is the "Redeemer," which means one who buys back. Our parents, all the way back to Adam, were born spiritually dead and so were we. We were born as the children of Mr. and Mrs. So and So. Unfortunately, we were born wrong. This is why Jesus said we must be born-again, born a second time.
When you are born-again, you become a child of God. At that juncture, the Bible says a new name is written down in Glory—your name—if you make a decision to accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour. This is not churchianity, but the new and living way in Christ Jesus. Today, as an ambassador of Jesus Christ, I have the ability, by the quickening power of the Holy Ghost, to usher you into the presence of the mighty Christ. It's through His shed blood that you'll gain justification before God.
God's offer to you is that you can be born-again. All your sins will be forgiven and forgotten; today will be the best day of your life and tomorrow will be better. Have you ever had a better offer? What God requires of you is for you to believe upon Jesus Christ, His only begotten son. Repent and turn from your sins and surrender your life to the direction and authority of the Lord Jesus Christ. The end of this life-changing decision is eternal life.
No matter what you have done in the past, no matter how bound you might be by sin, drugs, alcohol, lust, or hatred, the blood of Jesus Christ is ready to wash away every sin and make you a brand new person in Christ Jesus. You will become born-again—born a second time—the true birthday of redeeming consequence.
Are you ready to make a decision for the King of Glory? You'll never make a decision of greater magnitude and benefit. It does not exist. Follow me now, audibly, in the sinner's prayer:
Dear God, I come to you a sinner. I ask forgiveness for my sins. I believe that Jesus Christ, your only begotten Son, shed His blood to break the bondage of sin in my life, and that His blood and only His blood can wash away my sins. Wash me clean in the blood of Christ. I promise to follow Jesus Christ with all my might from this day forth. Thank you, God, for saving my soul! Thank you for making me a new creature. In Jesus name I pray, believing it's done. Amen.
Welcome to the commonwealth of Israel. Congratulations, you are born-again. You are a child of God and today is the best day of your life.
Romans 10:10 reads:
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
To seal your salvation, you need to confess your salvation. Let's do it together.
Repeat out loud after me: "I am born again. I am a child of God. All my sins have been washed clean in the blood of Jesus. I am a new creature in Christ Jesus. Thank you, Father, for my beautiful salvation!"
Now go and tell others what has happened to you. Be sure to follow the Lord Jesus Christ in water baptism, by immersion, and seek a church that honors the Word of God.
This is the beginning of everlasting salvation. New and phenomenal things have begun to happen in your life, already. Before, you sat in darkness, but now you have seen a great light.
At GodSaidManSaid, we are so excited for you and your choice for salvation. We want you to know we love you dearly. We are now children of the same Father. Click on the "Contact Us" link to commune with us concerning your new-found salvation. We will correspond and rejoice with you. God bless you.

In past years, potassium (K) deficiency was a mystery tucked inside a riddle wrapped inside an enigma.
Vibrant ridge-till corn suddenly succumbed to striped firing on the outer leaf edges — a classic sign of K deficiency. What puzzled ridge tillers were the high soil K levels that accompanied K deficiency symptoms. Although soil K levels were plentiful, plant roots could not access the nutrient because of nutrient stratification in soil layers. To remedy the situation, ridge tillers banded K in the fall on top of ridges so plants could access nutrients.
End of problem, right?
For ridge tillers, it was. But as 2000 showed, K deficiencies are no longer limited to ridge till. Corn in a number of Midwestern fields with more tillage — such as chisel plowing — exhibited K deficiency symptoms.
"It was the first time in 15 years I'd seen such widespread symptoms over much of the state," says Antonio Mallarino, an Iowa State University soil scientist. "Usually, deficiency symptoms have occurred mainly in eastern Iowa fields."
Causes. The reasons for these K deficiencies vary. Soil K levels in some Midwestern fields are low. If you've had problems with K deficiency in the past, it's a good idea to soil test in order to detect low K levels. Coarse-textured soils are the most susceptible to K deficiency, says Ron Gelderman, manager of the South Dakota State University Soil Testing Laboratory.
In many other cases, though, weather triggered K deficiency. If that's the case, relax.
"Last year, we had a dry spring in Iowa," says Mallarino. "Dry weather limits potassium uptake, especially when it's dry in the topsoil. There is little you can do about that if the soil is dry 8 to 10 in. or deeper.
If weather patterns change, K deficiencies could decrease, says Kevin Branick, a Pioneer Hi-Bred International agronomist stationed in Sioux Falls, SD. "If we go back to more normal growing conditions, it won't be as big of a problem as last year."
What can you do? Potassium deficiency symptoms do not surface until corn enters the V6 growth stage — approximately four to six weeks after planting. Because K demand increases during this time, reduced uptake effects then become visible.
Yellowing starts at the leaf tip and then progresses toward the leaf base. If K deficiency persists, it will reduce plant growth and increase stalk lodging later in the season.
Unfortunately, there is little you can do once symptoms appear. However, advance planning can help you determine if it is worthwhile for you to buy K and the accompanying application.
Switching systems. If you plan to switch to an intensive conservation tillage system like no-till or ridge till, make sure that you first beef up your K levels, says Tony Vyn, a Purdue University agronomist.
"Conservation tillage may impose an additional restriction on K availability to corn, due to stratification in the soil," Vyn says. That's why building up high K levels before you convert makes sense. Ridge till. If you're a ridge tiller, deep banding K2O in the fall is a no-brainer. For the $4 to $10/acre cost of a K application, ridge tillers receive an average 8-bu./acre return from deep banding, Mallarino says. Ridge till application rates of K2O vary from 40 to 140 lbs./acre, depending upon soil tests.
Mallarino recommends banding K 5 to 7 in. deep. "Soils can dry down deeper than that, so this doesn't always work," he says. "But going any deeper than that requires tremendous power that isn't worth it." Hybrids can differ in their response to K applications, Gelderman says. "But almost all of the hybrids in our trial responded to K applications," he points out. "So, we can best manage this by K applications, and not by hybrid selection."
No till. The economics of K applications aren't so bright on no-till, Mallarino says. On average, deep banding K in no-till garners growers 4 1/2 bu./acre.
"In some years, you can get an 8- to 10-bu./acre response. In some years, you get nothing," Mallarino says. "The results are more variable."
Less intensive tillage. On less intensive tillage systems like chisel plowing, save your money. "Unless soil tests indicate K levels are medium or lower, we don't gain much by applying deep-banding potassium in most cases," Mallarino says. "In cases where deficiencies do occur, they're often weather-related ones that you can't do anything about."
However, soil test K levels are spotty in some of these fields, regardless of weather, Mallarino adds.
"In some of those areas, the soil test levels are really low," he says. "We may not be able to fix those now because deficient areas are as small as a few square feet. But once we learn more about variable rate technology, we may be able to apply more K in some very small areas and less in others."

Varsity Coach Award of Merit
From MeritBadgeDotOrg
| Varsity Coach Award of Merit is discontinued. It has been replaced by Unit Leader Award of Merit. (See Discontinued awards.)
Those who earned it before it was discontinued may still wear it, but it can no longer be earned.
Shortly after the National Eagle Scout Association was established in 1972, it began to make available a NESA Scoutmaster Award. The award was presented to one Scoutmaster per BSA area each year. These Scoutmasters' records demonstrated proper use of Boy Scout advancement, and a significant number of their Boy Scouts attained the Eagle Scout rank. This award was discontinued on December 31, 1987.
The president of the Boy Scouts of America requested that NESA convert its award into a Scoutmaster Award of Merit that could be earned by all Scoutmasters. His rationale was that there is a need for recognizing Scoutmasters relatively early in their work in that position, before they qualify for the Scouter's Key. It is now available to Varsity Coaches as well as Scoutmasters.
The nominee need not be an Eagle Scout but must:
- 1. Be a currently registered Varsity Coach who has served in that position for at least 18 months.
- 2. Have achieved the Quality Unit Award at least once during the period of service.
- 3. Have completed Varsity Leader Fast Start, This is Scouting, Varsity Coach Leader Specific Training, and Introduction to Outdoor Leader Skills.
- 4. Have a record of proper use of the Boy Scout advancement program, resulting in a majority of Varsity Scouts in the team attaining the First Class rank.
- 5. Have a record of
- Development of youth leadership through the team method
- Positive relations with the team's chartered organization
- An extensive outdoor program including strong summer camp attendance
- A positive image of Scouting in the community
- A troop operation that attracts and retains Varsity Scouts
The chair of the team committee has the responsibility of nominating the Varsity Coach on behalf of the team leaders' council and the team committee.
The nomination is certified by the unit commissioner and forwarded to the local council service center.
The nomination should be approved by the Scout executive and either the council NESA chair or the council commissioner.
The Scout executive will forward the nomination to the director of the National Eagle Scout Association at the national office.
A full-color certificate will be provided by NESA free of charge. A cost of $1.50 per certificate will be charged for a certificate with the recipient's name laser-printed. Payment should accompany the order.
The National Eagle Scout Association will send the certificates to the Scout executive via pouch mail. Please allow two to four weeks for turnaround time.
A full-color, 6-inch jacket patch, No. 00147, is available through the Supply Division.
A square knot (white on tan) for the uniform, No. 05001, is available through the Supply Division.
The award may be presented at an appropriate chartered organization or unit function with acknowledgment at a district or council event or at a district or council recognition event.
Note: Nominees may earn the Varsity Coach Award of Merit one time only.

There are dozens of shopping engines out there ranging from Shopzilla, Nextag, Become, ShopWiki, and Shopping.com to name a few. Just as in regular PPC, there are best practices to ensure an optimum return–or a minimum loss.
Shopping channels are similar to typical PPC because it's an auction-based system. It's different in the fact that you bid and compete on categories instead of keywords. The bids are often in $0.10 increments and positioning is often based purely on bids. If you're familiar with paid search on a moderate level, and you are aware of the differences mentioned, then you'll be on fairly similar turf. So here are some best practices to make the best of your shopping feed experiences.
Make Sure Feeds Are Updated: There is no faster way to turn someone off of your site via shopping channels than have one price show up on the search results, and then a separate price show up on the product page. Update your feeds as often as you update your pricing.
Watch Bids Daily: Bidding on shopping channels is almost a pure position play. If you're not careful you'll quickly find your item at the very top of results, or completely off the first page.
Pick Your Battles: Many competitors will offer stripped down and refurbished models in order to show a lower price. Compare your product offering to your competitors. If there is a difference in the package, and you can't explain it in the description, and you can't compete with a similar price, don't bid on the item! Beyond the description you will not have the opportunity to explain the difference in features and benefits on why your offering is superior, so don't even try.
Watch Out For Popular Items: If one of your items gets a high click-through rate, pull it. Surprised? Don't be. Shopping sites have a very large network of affiliates and sub-sites, that will all be more than happy to take your successful product and showcase it on your site. This may sound good at first, but these network sites have no interest in sending you quality traffic, and are promoting your popular product only to get a paid click at your expense.
If after considering these tips you feel you're ready to dive in to shopping channels, go for it! But keep an eye on your budgets, and don't be afraid to pull out of a category if it's not profitable.

Do you like
sweet young things? Pretty girls with firm, tight bodies,
sweet faces, girls who just want to make you happy? That's all
I want, just to make you - and my girlfriend, of course,
I used to be
pretty innocent, before I met my girlfriend. She taught me
lots of things, about how she likes her pussy licked, about
how the guys she brings home want their cocks sucked, and how
good it feels to have something thick shoved into my ass, how
hard it makes me come.
There's still a lot more I'm curious about, and maybe we can
talk about it. I can be pretty kinky, but I haven't tried
everything I want to, either.
I keep thinking what it's going to be like, the phone ringing
and the voice of a man I don't know. It makes me kind of
shivery inside, thinking about what we'll talk about, how
you'll sound, how I'll feel... And I just keep getting hornier
and hornier, too. Don't wait too long.

(CBS News) NEW YORK - It is among the most widely-recognized paintings in the world right up there with the Mona Lisa.
"The Scream" by Norwegian expressionist Edvard Munch depicts a human figure on a bridge under a red sky, shrieking in fear or despair.
Munch created four versions of it and as CBS News correspondent Seth Doane reports one of them is up for auction Wednesday evening."The Scream" could fetch $200 million at auction
Munch painting may be permanently damaged
Sue Prideaux will be in the room when "The Scream" is auctioned. She wrote a biography of Munch. The painting is expected to fetch up to $200 million at Sotheby's auction in New York.
"If you look at the billionaires, there are only so many private islands they can buy, private jets, private yachts. There's only one Scream," said Prideaux.
At least, it is the only one that will ever be up for sale - three others hang in museums.
Munch created the pastel on board in 1895. He was in great pain, a love affair had just ended and he had visited his sister in an Oslo insane asylum when he found himself at a fjord.
"He had this vision that the sky turned to blood and there was this scream though nature," explained Prideaux.
Doane: "Here is this amorphous, amoeba-like, androgynous character.. It evokes a feeling even if we can't quite put our finger on it."
Prideaux: "That's a very important part of it - because you can relate to it whether you're old, young, male, female and the extraordinary thing of the skull beneath the skin - you know we all have that skull, don't we?"
The painting has inspired countless pop-culture knock-offs from the Wes Craven movie to the Homer Simpson poster.
"There aren't many works of art that are blow-up dolls, are there?" Prideaux joked.
New York art dealer David Nash said the piece could sell for much higher than its auction estimate of $80 to $150 million.
"A dealer said you can always re-make the money. You can never re-make the painting," said Nash.
And the auctioneer shopped it around the world - going all-out to get the best price.
"Sotheby's in London presented it like a jewel - in a black velvet room," Prideaux explained. "The presence the painting had - you could just gaze at it for hours and hours."
A presence at a price that precious few can afford.

How to Use
the Readings
Inquiry Question
Reading 2: Four Views of European American/American Indian Relations
The following excerpts reflect the attitudes of four people important in the conflicts between European American settlers moving west and the American Indians who had traditionally lived there.
Andrew Jackson to John McKee, 1794.1
Thomas Jefferson on the policy of "civilization,"
In 1811 Tecumseh traveled through the Southeast, attempting
to gain recruits for the Pan-Indian movement. The following is an excerpt
from his speech to the Cherokee.3
Behold what the white man has done to our people! Gone are the Pequot, the Narraganset, the Powhatan, the Tuscarora and the Coree.... We can no longer trust the white man. We gave him our tobacco and our maize. What happened? Now there is hardly land for us to grow these holy plants.
White men have built their castles where the Indians' hunting grounds once were, and now they are coming into your mountain glens. Soon there will be no place for the Cherokee to hunt the deer and the bear. The tomahawk of the Shawnee is ready. Will the Cherokee raise the tomahawk? Will the Cherokee join their brothers the Shawnee?
Junaluska, Tochalee and Chuliwa were Cherokee chiefs. These
were their responses to Tecumseh, 1811.4
We know that they have come to stay. They are like leaves in forest, they are so many. We believe we can live in peace with them. No more do they molest our lands. Our crops grow in peace....
Tochalee and Chuliwa: After years of distress we found ourselves in the power of a generous nation.... We have prospered and increased, with the knowledge and practice of agriculture and other useful arts. Our cattle fill the forests, while wild animals disappear. Our daughters clothe us from spinning wheels and looms. Our youth have acquired knowledge of letters and figures. All we want is tranquility.
Questions for Reading 2
1. Why, according to General Jackson, did American Indians negotiate treaties?
2. Who are the "other sources" Jackson said settlers would turn to if the U.S. government did not help them fight Indians?
3. How did Thomas Jefferson think the policy of "civilization" would help European American settlement?
4. What events did Tecumseh refer to in order to get the Cherokee to join him? Why?
5. What method did Tecumseh advocate to stop European American expansion?
6. What reasons did the Creek chiefs give for not joining Tecumseh?
7. How did Jackson's and Tecumseh's view of the origins of European American/American Indian conflict compare?

"I just received my new Harmony Wood Needle tips and cables. I had read on several sites how nice these needles were. They didn't exaggerate at all. I have used aluminum, plastic and bamboo needles. Until today, I always preferred the bamboo needles. Today, I am a convert to Harmony Wood needles. The wood feels fabulous to hold. The yarn moves along easily. And they are so lovely and colorful. I can't wait to replace my others with more Harmony. I am already 1/2 way finished with a new hat since opening the package. Thank you for a great product" Cheryl L., Knit Picks Customer
"I absolutely LOVE your Harmony needles. The sharp points make them perfect for lace projects. The texture – 'feel' of the needles is great – unlike any other wood needle I have used and us knitters are all about 'feel'. Colors are great – another sensory addition to knitting. Thank you for this fine product." Susan C., Knit Picks Customer

Rscott necesitaba un nuevo diseño de página web y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 30 diseños de 14 diseñadores freelance.
Showwy allows users to show off and browse photos of items and categories that they are interested in. Users post images and tag their items belonging to certain categories. Users then participate and vote images up and down. Users can participate or browse categories that they are interested in.
The target audience for this is those who are interested in sharing online. Those who already post in Flickr pools, Facebook groups, and "showoff your X" forum threads.
We want a simple, beautiful homepage that focuses on user-submitted content. We want a light color scheme. We want a centered design, not a stretched or liquid one.
We do not have a specific logo currently. We MIGHT like Helvetica + a little something extra as a logo, but do not hold yourself to this as a requirement.
We require all of the links, buttons, and functionality that are currently on our homepage. While you are not limited to only these functions and items, please do not go crazy and turn this into some incredibly busy monstrosity. We like simple, elegant, and easy to understand.
The homepage will have two featured sections - a top posts area and a top categories area. Each of these should feature the title, date, author, and views. You need to to keep the search, sign in/up, create new category, and footer links. Where, how, and what else is up to you.
Just so you know us, here are some things we like and do not like.
- Apple design aesthetic
- Subtle curves and gradients
- Color, used appropriately
- Simplicity and a good UX
- Abusing Photoshop filters
- Dark designs
- Confusing users
A layered PSD is required as the deliverable.
If you need anything else, have questions, or want to run something by me, just contact me.

you know, I was excited to see Code Red getting back on it's feet these last few months. The updates seemed to be getting more regular and there was hope for long-promised titles. But here we are again...the same old story.
The treachery of visiting the Code Red blog reminds me of the childhood trauma of going shopping with my grandma; lots of her aimless dawdling, periods of amnesia, a shopping list of items that nobody really wanted, and promises that I would get something great if I just waited.
This 'blog' too often falls short what I assume is it's goal: delivering information. Questions from visitors almost always go unanswered, huge gaps in site host activity is maddening and titles are mentioned and then forgotten for years, YEARS!
I did love my grandmother, and I have a fondness for Code Red. But for the love of God...keep us up to date on your titles.

Debian on the Desktop
The Universal Operating System as your Desktop
The Debian Desktop subproject is a group of volunteers who want to
create the best possible operating system for home and corporate
workstation use. Our motto is
Software that Just Works. In
short, our goal is to bring Debian, GNU, and Linux to the mainstream
Our tenets
- Recognizing that both GNOME and KDE as well as many Desktop frameworks like GNUstep, GTK, Qt and others exist, we will support the use of them, and make sure they work well on Debian. KDE and GNOME are the primary choices for a default environment for the end user. Supporting other desktop environments such as Xfce would be nice as well, depending on developer time and space constraints.
- We recognize that there are only two important classes of users: the novice, and the expert. We will do everything we can to make things very easy for the novice, while allowing the expert to tweak things if they like.
- We will try to ensure that software is configured for the most common desktop use. For instance, the regular user account added by default during installation should have permission to play audio and video, print, and manage the system through sudo.
We will try to ensure that questions which are asked of the user (which should be kept to a minimum) make sense even with a minimum of computer knowledge. Many Debian packages today present the user with difficult technical details. For example, if you simply select the
desktop environmentand
development environmenttasks during a woody installation, the first thing you will be presented with after all the packages are downloaded is a debconf prompt from binutils about
kernel link failure info. To the novice, this kind of thing is confusing and frightening. To the expert, this is annoying and unnecessary. Right after this question is one from less which asks something about a MIME handler. A novice doesn't even know what MIME is. An expert can configure less however they like it after the installation is complete. The priority of these kinds of Debconf questions should be at least lowered.
(Happily, many of these issues are already fixed for the sarge release using debian-installer).
- And we will have fun doing all of it!
How you can help
The most important parts of a Debian subproject aren't mailing lists, web pages, or archive space for packages. The most important part is motivated people who make things happen. You don't need to be an official developer to start making packages and patches. The core Debian Desktop team will ensure that your work is integrated. So here's some things you can do:
Test our
Desktop Default Environmenttask (or kde-desktop task), installing one of our next release testing images and send feedback to the debian-desktop mailing list.
- Work on debian-installer. The GTK+ frontend needs you.
- Help Debian GNOME team, Debian Qt and KDE Team or Debian Xfce Group. You can help with packaging, bug triaging, documentation, tests and more.
- Teach users how to install and use the Debian desktop tasks we have now (desktop, gnome-desktop and kde-desktop).
- Work on lowering the priority of, or removing unnecessary debconf prompts from packages, and making the ones that are necessary easy to understand.
- Help the Debian Desktop Artwork effort.
We have some articles in our wiki, and our starting point there is: DebianDesktop. Some Debian Desktop wiki articles are outdated.
Mailing List
This subproject is being discussed in the debian-desktop mailing list.
IRC Channel
We encourage anyone (Debian Developer or not) who is interested in Debian Desktop to join #debian-desktop on OFTC IRC (irc.debian.org).
Who's Involved?
Anyone who wants to be is welcome. Actually, everyone in pkg-gnome, pkg-kde and pkg-xfce groups are indirectly involved. The debian-desktop mailing list subscribers are active contributors. The debian installer and tasksel groups are important for our goals too.
