Hiya, We had quite a good meeting today. The primary agenda was to clarify the purpose of the SIG. Those present agreed that our current mission statement "to maintain and provide channels of communications to enable prospective contributors and community members to engage with each other" made sense, and does not overlap with other SIGs such as CommOps that are more involved in improving the onboarding processes and tooling.
<takes a breath> The links for the logs are here, and the minutes are below. Please, reply with any questions or concerns so that we can address them before we re-announce our goal :) Minutes: https://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-meeting-3/2016-10-10/fedora-join_october_10_2016.2016-10-10-15.00.html Minutes (text): https://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-meeting-3/2016-10-10/fedora-join_october_10_2016.2016-10-10-15.00.txt Log: https://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-meeting-3/2016-10-10/fedora-join_october_10_2016.2016-10-10-15.00.log.htm ============================================== #fedora-meeting-3: Fedora-Join October 10 2016 ============================================== Meeting started by FranciscoD at 15:00:58 UTC.

(FranciscoD, 15:28:20) * someone turns up, finds us cool contributors hanging around here, speaks to us, makes friends, gets to know how the community works, our philosophy (and finds it awesome) and what teams we have, finds a mentor (community mentor as opposed to team specific mentor), picks one or more teams to work in, becomes a part of the community, not just a specific team in the community. (FranciscoD, 15:28:51) * newbies are not limited to team specific relationships (FranciscoD, 15:29:49) * newbies that join together can work together, even if they work in different teams (we're all always closer to our classmates than to seniors/juniors) (FranciscoD, 15:29:57) * they get a much better overall idea of how the community functions and are exposed to the workflows of different teams through us (including tooling, admin, process, goals, tasks, ninjas) (FranciscoD, 15:30:08) * they go on to develop into contributors that also have a good idea of how the multiple arms of the community work to keep Fedora going (FranciscoD, 15:30:17) * AGREED: (+1:4, 0:0, -1:0) Fedora Join limit itself to forming and maintaining channels that let prospective contributors engage with the community.
