[DRAFT] What the new Status Pages potentially look like

2017-06-12 Thread John D. Ament
All, We're piloting a new format for the podling status pages. Specifically, the current status page leaves a lot to be desired - it's basically crafted html, there's no structure and its hard to find missing items. The end goal is to have a web form editable in Whimsy, but until we get more

[NOTICE] Managing Podling Rosters

2017-05-30 Thread John D. Ament
Podlings, I wanted to raise a point to all, hence the direct emails. The Whimsy PMC has put together a roster tool for managing the committers in a podling. Rather than managing the committer list in your status file, this will keep track and make sure we list out everyone's valid IDs. If you

All, Please see the below note. There was no report filed, which is very concerning for a new podling. Please reach out to your mentors if you're not sure how to get the report together. John On 2017-06-07 20:46 (-0400), johndam...@apache.org wrote: > Dear podling, > > This email was sent

I'm unable to find any evidence that the mentors (Ashutosh & Luke) actually provided this sign off. There's no record on any list. Please either have the mentors do the sign off or have them post some kind of comment on a list indicating they signed off. John -- Forwarded message

Planning to remove rosters from active podlings

2017-09-25 Thread John D. Ament
All, This coming weekend (9/29) I plan to remove the roster sections from all podling status pages. Podling rosters are meant to be managed in Whimsy. The roster in the status page is redundant and end up out of sync. In place of the roster, I will be adding a link automatically to all podling
