Hi folks,
I'm no longer able to commit time to maintaining the Make novice
[1][2] lesson, so I am looking for someone to replace me. The main
duties of lesson maintenance include reviewing and merging new pull
requests, tracking issues, keeping the lesson up to date with the
standard lesson template, and helping to guide the direction of the
lesson - both in terms of content and formatting.
Additionally, maintainers are part of the lesson subcommittee that
makes decisions regarding the lesson templates, tooling, release
management, and other content-related matters.
The overhead hasn't been more than 1-2 hours a week (~1 day a month) tops.
If you would like to be considered, please email me separately at
michaelj at epcc.ed.ac.uk by Friday 17th June (this Friday) with the
following information:
* Your name.
* Your GitHub username.
* A brief statement of interest including:
- Why you are interested being the Make maintainer.
- Any contributions you've made to the Software Carpentry community
(including teaching, pull requests, emails to this list, tool
development, ...)
- A few of the top changes you would like to make to the Make
lessons and why you think they are important (this can be anything
from formatting to content to ...)
I will evaluate the applications, and announce the new maintainer no
later than Friday 25th.
Feel free to email me if you have any questions.
best wishes,
mike
