ITA Sub-Teams version 2.0

Hello,

On the 2nd of April, 2014 I have proposed a list of 25 Sub-Team for ITA.

As explained and promised on my previous post, it is time for version 2.0 and tell you the truth, I didn't see that coming nor I expected that would be so quick but I just love it. It means we're thinking correctly and sharing our thoughts. 

Special thanks to Haider Al Najafi and Mustafa Farid for their suggestions. We highly appreciate that.

I have highlighted the Sub-Teams of 'the same nature' with the same color. For example: Windows, Mac OS and GNU/Linux of the same nature.

I have use same color but different degree when there are closed Sub-Teams from each other but with different Interest. For example: Developers, Programmers, Games and Web Design. All are dealing with codes but the result or the interest is a bit different. 

Note 1 : The ones highlighted with Red and Italic, those are to be removed, IMHO.

Note 2: some Sub-Teams highlighted with the same color can be merged and some can not.

My Suggestion

• Android, Blackberry and iOS to be merged together with Smart Phone and the New Sub-Team will be named: Smart Phone Operating System Sub-Team. This means (25-3 = 22).
• Brainstorming, Projects and Special Cases to be safely removed. Why? because these 3 processes/fields can be inside each and every Sub-Team so there is absolutely no need to separate them. This means (22-3 = 19).
• Hardware, Software and Technical Support to be merged in one team, that is: HelpDesk Support. This means (19-2 = 17).
• Developers and Programming to be merged in one team, that is: Programming Languages. This means (17-1 =16).
• Graphics Design and Video Editing to be merged in one team, that is: Artwork. This means (16-1 =15).
• Everything else remain the same without any merge except for minor renaming (if needed).

Why there are 10 new Sub-Teams?

• Computer Science has many fields.
• There is a great need to specific Sub-Teams, such us #25

ITA Sub-Team Roadmap

As I have explained on my previous post, we must slow down and KISS. When it comes to 25 different Sub-Teams, this rule is definitely worth applying. That said, here is a simple and quick plan. We do need to follow the Phases Approach to make life easier for everyone and reduce any kind of errors/mistake as much as possible.

Phase 1

Setting up these Sub-Teams:

1. Documentations - We have TL
2. Games - We have TL
3. GNU/Linux - We have TL
4. Marketing & Communications - Urgent Need
5. Networking & Internet - We have TL
6. Quality Assurance (QA) - Testing/Bugs 
7. Programming Languages (Developers and Programmers)
8. Graphics & Visualization (Graphics Design and Video Editing) - We have TL
9. Scientific Research & E-Learning (for students to learn how to think for any researchers & E-Learning) - NEW
10. Human Resources and Management - NEW - Urgent Need

Phase 2

Setting up these Sub-Teams:

1. Mac OS
2. Computer Security, Cryptography and Ethical Hackers
3. Translations
4. Web Design 
5. Windows
6. Smart Phone OS (Android, iOS and Blackberry)
7. HelpDesk Support (Hardware and Software)
8. Servers - NEW
9. AI (Artificial Intelligence) - NEW
10. Computer Architecture and Engineering - NEW
11. Database - NEW
12. Health Informatics - NEW
13. Inventions - NEW
14. Software Engenerring and Inforamtion Science - NEW
15. Project Management - NEW

Phase 3

Setting up the Technical Bored which should have - as per ITA Roadmap - 2 to 10 members and most likely, those members will be part of the Sub-Teams but with super high skills and great experience.

Summary

IMHO, ITA Sub-Teams right now are more powerful and better with even more variety and so many different fields. Above all, we shall operate in Phases so that we won't make it hard and in order to KISS.

Thank you! 

Thank you for your time. I hope my ideas are helpful and accepted.
