Thanks for these links, Jan. Nice to see the the training podling has started, though it'll be a few months before we see assets coming out of that I think.
>From the YouTube video this slide deck was shared: https://www.slideshare.net/alanfgates/hortonworks-apache-training What I'm taking from this is that a lot of disparate employers have had to pick up the pieces around Apache orientation, and that the ASF themselves haven't done a great job in consolidating that info to date. Now, it looks like these things are much better in hand, and there's a path forward towards better on-boarding of those enterprise employees. So: how do we attract more people to get involved in our humble project? :) That's the $20,000 question. -Joan ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Jan Lehnardt" <j...@apache.org> > To: "CouchDB Developers" <dev@couchdb.apache.org> > Sent: Tuesday, 12 March, 2019 5:28:07 AM > Subject: Improve ASF o boarding > > Hi all, > > when we set out the list of things we want to talk through before > doing a vote on the FoundationDB proposal was improving our > onboarding situation. > > Thanks to Isabel Drost-Fromm from the ASF, I found out that one angle > of this is currently under development already: training materials > for companies that want employees to get into ASF projects.
