Revision as of 02:59, 4 June 2008

URGENT Can someone with the proper authority PLEASE put a disclaimer on ALL relevant mesh wiki pages as that the mesh is a work in progress, and especially its current limits?

We are seeing reports from teachers having expectations that it will work across the board, for any activity, for any number of kids, in schools with many XOs running at the same time, and the mesh ain't working for them. It's getting old to try to dodge genuine, honest questions with sending them to the wiki when we know the wiki does not tell the whole story as it matters to teachers in the field, at this date.

Yes, I know we are working hard to fix things, but meanwhile we do need to keep high the level of trust by disclosing what the limits are.

Does the below work? What are the limits we should be disclaiming?

I feel that one is a bit too harsh. I am proposing this other one. I want us to be clear to the end-users that the mesh is not what they expect it to be, while not hindering the feelings of the developers who are working hard to get things going. (yes, it might be that the end-user expectations are too high, but that in itself is part of the problem...) Yamaplos 22:59, 3 June 2008 (EDT)
