All are welcome to join rOpenSci's next Community Call - *Set Up Your Package

rOpenSci puts ongoing effort into exploring and communicating how developers 
can best attract attention to their package (e.g. usage, citations, or 
feedback), or how to set up their repository to encourage the types of 
contributions they want. Maëlle, Hugo, and Steffi will share tips and examples 
on how to do this, and I (Stefanie Butland) will moderate to get answers to 
your questions.

- What is the community of a package or project?
- Include a Code of Conduct
- What goes in your package contributing guide? Etiquette and setup
- Use your README to share your expectations with users and potential 
contributors
- Use issue templates
- Use issue labels to explicitly invite contributions (code or non-code) and 
user feedback
- Include a roadmap so potential contributors know where your package is going, 
what you plan to implement, and what you won’t
- What characteristics of a package or project make contributors keep coming 
back?

All are welcome. No RSVP required.

Cheers,
Stefanie Butland
