 The first time I ran this in Tel Aviv there were about 30 people. That
 is a good number, Anywhere between 20-50 participants sounds good.

 It is a mix of short lectures and hands-on in pairs. So we'd need
 tables and wifi. People need to bring their own computer.

 This is an opportunity to get them involved.

 On  January 24th I am running a workshop in which I am helping
 people get through their first Open Source contribution. This is a 
 language
 independent event. We don't even require people to know how to program.
 There are plenty of things people can contribute even if they don't 
 know
 how to write code.

Amichai, can you kindly provide us with eligible hosting time slots for the
Doodle?

​We can use Hamakor's social networks channels for advertisement, any
additional channels you can think of?

Re: Your First Open Source contribution - Workshop

[Amichai Rotman]

​We have a suitable class room at the Technion (at the Industry and
Engineering faculty).

I'll check if they're willing to host it.

WiFi isn't a problem. Any attendee who is a student anyware can use the
Eduram WiFi and otheres have an open WiFi too.

We can use Doodle[1] to get an idea of how many will actually attend .

I am open to hear about other locations where we have a chance of a
reasonably large audience.
The first time I ran this in Tel Aviv there were about 30 people. That is a
good number, Anywhere between 20-50 participants sounds good.

If you can arrange a venue where we can project slides and have tables to

and if you help promote it, then I'd be glad to come to Haifa and run it
there as well.

While this was true in the past, in the past couple of months we have been
trying to focus more on new comers.
As part of this effort, we are now actively looking for mentors who are
active open source contributors and can guide new contributors.
We are open to feedback on how we can make new comers more welcome and
on-board them better.

These are all important topics. I believe we try to encourage them as well,
but we are always be happy to learn how we can improve and do better.

I was wondering about that too but I think it would have been even creepier

That was not clear to me from the description.
In any case that reminds me, if I were the one organizing it, I'd probably
just remove those nasty comments from the announcement page or I'd use them
as an opportunity to point out that man are also welcome. Maybe not those
commenters.

The events are targeted for women, but are not "women only".

Sounds like great values to work for / with. Let's schedule you a talk for
one of the next meetings.

Re: Your First Open Source contribution - Workshop

[Gabor Szabo]

Hi Tomer and all,

I am mostly aware of the HackNights. The one I attended was not geared
towards new contributors. I was not aware of other types of meetings.

I also see the "Women do Open Source" event Lior runs. I don't know how
could I cooperate with that given that I am not a woman.
Any suggestions?

Code-Mavens in case some of the members prefer a women only event.

empathy towards the other participants. We work in pairs, triples,
sometimes even more. Our events are gender neutral.

regards
Gabor

Hi Gabor,

Thank you for the invitation! Helping more people get started with Open
Source is always great.

I'm not sure if you are aware, but we (Hamakor) have been running similar
meetups over the past couple of years - https://www.meetup.com/Open-
Source-and-Free-Software-in-Israel/.
We would be happy to cooperate with you in the future and work together to
increase involvement in Open Source.

Tomer
