Hoi,
I am writing a series of blog posts about Commons. My aim is to
identify the issues that I have with how it functions. There are
several and I do not bother to write about the ones that are being
tackled by the team around Guillaume (as far as it is clear to me what
they are doing).
The latest blog is about the difficulty of finding pictures, I am also
of the opinion that we have the opportunity to be more of a resource
of stock images that are freely licensed. We should stimulate this.
Yes Commons is growing rapidly. Its coverage leaves a lot to be
desired. In my opinion we need to concentrate on search and coverage
to make Commons truly kick ass.
A lot of fun stuff can still be done with the
search engine (lucene),
but as far as I know there is no development there. Would be nice if the
foundation would work on that.
Maarten
Thanks.
