Mission
- Team:
Different teamsalready havedifferent,- mostly well documented,
- SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures)
for joiningtheir respective SIG.
- example:
The infrastructure team is a great example of this.
However, weoften meetpeople whoare unsure ofhow their skillsfit intothe community.
We want to providethese peoplewitha channel where they can speak toexisting members of the community,
learn about what they do and use this information to find the right team to get started with.
Wehelpnew membersformrelationshipswithother members;
we point them to the right resources - wiki or otherwise;
and weexpect thatthisshouldgreatly improve` the joining experience.
Goals
Set up a communication channel between the existing contributors and prospective contributors.
Speaking to current team members is always encouraging.
We could even set up a system to send "easyfix" tasks to this mailing list giving folks a chance to work on them and learn in the process.
Guide/aid prospective contributors to turn into solid contributors. Rather than just pointing them to join.fedoraproject.org, talk to them, see what issues they face, help them decide where they want to get started.
To form better mentor-mentee relationships. Here, we mean "mentor" in the real sense of the word.
Give prospective contributors a communication channel to talk to each other. This is very important. Take the Google Summer of Code mailing list for instance. It is set up specifically so that the candidates can talk to each other. Since they’re all in the same boat, they feel more comfortable discussing certain issues amongst themselves. They’ll also be aware of what different people are up to which will give them a better idea of what they can do. It would be great if they could discuss and share the cool stuff they’ve begun to do. It would surely be encouraging.
Basically, look for potential, not polish. We can help them gain the polish that established contributors have.
Communication
We prefer Matrix/Element for synchronous communication. Element provides a web-based application that you can use in your web browser. It also provides desktop and mobile phone applications if you prefer.
Matrix: #join:fedoraproject.org
The Fedora community has its own Matrix/Element homeserver that one can login to using their Fedora Account. However, you can also access the channel using the default Matrix/Element homeserver where a Fedora Account is not required.
Additionally, we also use the mailing list/and or Fedora Discussion for asynchronous discussion:
Mailing List: fedora-join
