So the MC is tasked with tracking this and not every member is eager to share all achievements in widely public. So how will such information -- beyond what will/should be provided by preexisting work on the "All about LibreOffice" Dashboard[1] using existing public sources be useful in the future? Also note that maybe we should get the work on the Dashboard finished, before we extend the scope even further. ;) > HELPING NEWB DEVELOPERS > --- > (Ian involved) > > I propose to set up a training environment from where a newbie eager to > contribute to LibreOffice can practice, > without getting lost in the series of steps required to activate a local > environment from where the source > code can be compiled. > > The proper environment will be set up later, once the newbie got to know how > developers of LibreOffice are > used to work. So this is also trying to revitalize prior work, I assume? https://redmine.documentfoundation.org/issues/742 https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Hackfests/VMs/Using_a_VM Apparently the task was closed due to lack of interest[2] for now, which might change now that we have a Development mentor. Great to see initiative there, but what exactly is there to discuss from on the Board? > INVOLVING UNIVERSITIES On this, we should also build on prior work, namely our cooperations with: - ULPGC, Gran Canaria, Spain (2 Hackfests, one upcoming) - TU Dresden, Germany (1 Hackfest) - Scientific and Technological Research Council, Turkey (one upcoming Hackfest) Getting them involved in those developments would be wise. More maybe in the call.
