Hi everyone,

I've got a bunch of open questions that we could/should discuss. I think it
makes sense to have separate threads for each but I wanted to start a
"global" one first. This is lots of dull stuff to get sorted out I'm
afraid. Existing projects usually have it a bit easier because they already
come with a website or issue tracker etc.

I'll start new threads for some of these topics:

- Name search: I believe we need to start a PODLINGNAMESEARCH to see
whether "Training" is a suitable name(e.g. [1])

- Jira: Do we want to use Jira? Might sound a bit premature as we don't
have any "product" yet but I'm sure we will and I believe it makes sense to
have it

- Confluence: Do we need a Wiki? Not sure yet...

- Bylaws: Some/most/all (?) projects have bylaws, rules governing how they
work[2]

- Git/Github usage

- Releases: This is a bit more concrete already. What will constitute a
release? Assuming we produce a slidepack (in whichever format), does it
even need releases? Is each content update not a release on its own etc.?

- Legal/Trademark: It'd be good to discuss with Legal/Trademark folks so we
can give guidance on how companies (ours included) can refer to these
trainings in their material (e.g. "OpenCore Hadoop Training based on Apache
Training (incubating) - Hadoop" or something like that

- Website: We need a website....

- Twitter: apachetraining is already taken but I've registered
apache_training (not done anything yet)

- Slack: We have a #training channel in the-asf Slack. For those new to the
ASF you can register at https://the-asf.slack.com/ with your @apache.org
address

- Report: We need to prepare a report for the board/Incubator PMC every
month for three months and then every quarter after that, I've never done
that but we have people in here with lots of experience so I hope it won't
be a problem :)

And then there's the more interesting bits:

- What content are you interested in producing?
- Which "formats"? (e.g. PowerPoint, RevealJS, Videos etc.)
-

I'm looking forward to this!

Cheers,
Lars
