Hi Gris, Thanks for taking this initiative.
Can you make sure that Awasum, Matt & Katia get pointers to the ASF Google Summer of Code framework that's been put in place, as an exemplar of something the ASF has implemented successfully? My hope is that between this and Outreachy's own guidelines, we can come up with the structure we'll need to guide PMCs in making their submissions to Outreachy. If they're all on the list, some links to start with might be: http://community.apache.org/gsoc.html https://www.slideshare.net/smarru/google-summer-of-code-at-apache-software-foundation (especially slides 12, 14, 15, 18) https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/archive/2018/organizations/5175246747336704/ https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SAMZA/Google+Summer+of+Code Thanks, Joan On 2019-07-18 15:59, Griselda Cuevas wrote: > Hi folks, > > Context: > On June 24th Naomi proposed a framework for our Outreachy program [1], from > her proposal: > "...Outreachy presents a fantastic opportunity to work with and learn from > people as they go through that process > > from the D&I committee's perspective, the purpose of each internship > should be to gather as much information as possible about the intern's > journey. and that information should focus on areas that relate to our > primary objective > > mentors are responsible for gathering this information, and reporting > back to the D&I committee regularly. in particular, we should look at > creating something like what Google calls friction logs...." > > Because of this framework, we need to set up the Outreachy program with two > components: > 1) Outreachy program management (as any other Outreachy's community) > 2) Connection to D&I efforts within the ASF > This email outlines the plans for the first side only. > > What happened: > Today, the Outreachy coordinators for Mozilla met with Matt & Katia > (Outreachy coordinators for the ASF) and Gris.
