Hello Martin,

Thank you for sharing, it is much appreciated, and I think the new
members will also find it insightful. So the chairs have no objections
to getting the community more involved outside of RIPE meetings?

Re: [opensource-wg] Hello!

[Maria Matejka via opensource-wg]

Hello Patrick,

I have never seen people neither introducing themselves upon joining public 
mailing-lists, nor saying hello to newcomers.

This may look strange on first sight, but if you count the number of people 
involved, the complexity is quadratic. If 10 people were already in the list 
and other 10 joined, you're asking for 145 e-mails just for welcoming. This 
doesn't scale. The same way OSPF doesn't scale for routing the whole Internet. 

This is not isolated to mailing-lists – some people on Facebook, after being 
added to a group, like to post there "thanks for letting me in". It's annoying 
when you see 50 such messages every day and the actual topics are lost in the 
noise. There were even groups where posting this "thank you for accepting" 
message would get you an instant ban.

This is also not a discord server where people's activity can be measured by 
how much are they terminally online. Many of us are here for just coordinating 
and discussing stuff, and when there is nothing to say, then we say nothing. 
This just means that we currently don't have anything to say, not that we are 
inactive.

I can see how this may be strange and unwelcoming for some people, especially 
if you're neurotypical. Anyway, this is what happens at most of the 
mailing-lists I'm in and I don't see any reason to have it here differently.

Also, just by the way, all the archives are public. You are not spying on us by 
subscribing and I doubt that anybody would feel spied on by somebody 
subscribing to a mailing-list and not saying hello. More than that – it's 
perfectly ok to just subscribe and listen in.

The best way to introduce yourself is actually to bring a topic or to 
contribute to one. With that, we can react and have a meaningful discussion. 
With just a hello, don't be surprised that nobody reacted – to not react to 
hellos is the right thing to do to keep the noise ratio low.

Thank you for your understanding.
Maria

Re: [opensource-wg] Hello!

[Patrick Masson]

Maybe the perspective of a newbie might be of some help--or maybe 
not--but...


I discovered RIPE NCC from an article on the Open Source Initiative's 
website, "The ultimate list of reactions to the Cyber Resilience Act 
[1], which led me to a page on the European Commission's website [2].


I had to do a bit of hunting around to find out more about RIPE NCC and 
the organization's open source activities (as I would expect), but a 
quick search [3] led me right to the Open Source WG [4].


The information there must have been complete/relevant enough to entice 
me to join. I will admit I had to do a bit more searching/investigating 
to learn more about RIPE as the page and working group noted that the 
list and WG were for the "RIPE community" and "open source projects 
related to the RIPE community." So MAYBE if I was a bit more shy (or 
considerate) I would not have joined as neither are exactly in line with 
my area of work/development/interest, i.e., education technology, higher 
education, research computing, etc. However as open source was the theme 
and I am interested in learning and working more with folks in the EU, I 
thought I would reach out.


Once I joined the list (easy to do), I introduced myself; which I feel 
is the considerate thing to do, just so no one feels I am spying on them.


I was very happy to get a friendly reply from the WG chair that not only 
welcomed me and introduced himself (and the list) but also included a 
few topics of shared interest which sparked a few more exchanges. I felt 
like the list was active and grateful for my participation.


So, if my experience is any indication, I think "on-boarding" went 
pretty well.


If I were to offer any suggestions,

- I can understand how, if the reply is only to me, others might not 
know (and therefore be concerned) if I received a reply. I can also 
understand not wanting to pollute the list. Maybe create a generic reply 
so the list members can see the new member was welcomed? I'd also 
encourage others to say hello as well. Both Martin and Luka said Hi. I 
assume there are three people active on the list!?


- The WG page *could* be a bit more descriptive so that those unfamiliar 
with RIPE or the discussions could learn more. But this might be a never 
ending quest, as I suspect there will always be additional information 
that could help the next person. I did search the list archives [5] 
before actually joining to try and determine if the discussions would 
actually be of interest to me--and if my interests would be of interest 
to you all. I am not sure if other potential members would do this.


I hope this helps,
Patrick

Luka,

not all replies need to copy the whole list. I sent him some
information and hoped to have encouraged him enough to actually show
up at some future RIPE meeting. New members are always welcome and we
are happy to help, but CC'ing the whole list every time with the same
information is just noise in my view.
