Honestly, short of the the (already in progress) work to help new contributors getting on board I do not know what the best way is. But - that is down to me matching the "stereotypical" software engineer image people have - I did not have to work as hard to become part of the community as the people we are trying to encourage to join us will have to, and have had to already to get to a point where they want to join us. So - how could we make our community more inclusive? Ask, and listen to the problems people joining us in the past have had. Then use that information to find a solution. Iterate, find the next problem. Try to solve it. Repeat. Profit? OK ^ is a bit glib. But, this is not something we are going to solve in a cycle, or even a year - it will be a long term project, and someone like me, speaking from a position of privilege, about how to fix it is *not* how we should try to improve our situation. > > __________________________________________________________________________ > OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) > Unsubscribe: [email protected]?subject:unsubscribe > http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev >
