Melissa,
You haven't answered my question.
ASF projects already have a mechanism for rewarding contributions. Why
do they need a separate one?

Hi Mark,
The goal is to provide documentation to projects on how to implement a
community-run MVP program, should any project decide to do so.
It would be optional and additive.

Hello CommDev people:
Is there precedent at ASF for a community-run MVP program? If not, would
anyone like to collaborate on this to help provide guidance to ASF
projects? And is CommDev the right place?
In a recent Cassandra Marketing Working Group meeting (1) we discussed
the
idea of a community-hosted MVP program that adheres to ASF governance.
MVP
programs reward people who are actively contributing to/promoting a
project
by designating them as "MVPs" and listing them on community channels
(e.g.
project website). It's a great way to get people onboarded/involved,
recruit committers, and grow awareness for a project. This would also
create more opportunities for non-code contributions to a project.
MVP would be a non-governing body (2); one would need to re-apply or be
nominated annually.
Each PMC would have to approve of the MVP program and be part of the MVP
Committee to select MVPs each year. For the first year, the committee
would include at least one PMC member, 3-5 active contributors that will
be
selected by the PMC member(s), and a program lead. In subsequent years,
the
committee would include PMC member(s), previous MVPs, and a program lead.
Doc below (3); feedback would be much appreciated. If you can't access
it,
let me know and I'll find another way to share. Thank you!
