A few of us talked briefly in Halifax, but didn't get time to do much
work together. One key concept we discussed was defining the various
audiences that ComDev serves, so we can organize (and edit) content to
make the most sense to different kinds of readers.
One key audience I don't see us having much content for yet: managers,
marketers, engineers, etc. who are employed to work on ASF projects as
part(s) of their day job. We've had a number of people who "get it"
from various vendors talk about this in the past, but I don't think
we've ever really had an organized effort to collect great examples of
how vendors can *positively* contribute in terms of their policies.
I met two people in Halifax who talked about exactly this kind of
training at their companies, and I also remember (at the time) a good
slide deck and training from Alan Gates way back when [1]. There have
got to be other good stories that some of the respectful vendor teams
out there can tell that would be good examples we could use to help
other vendors understand how to best work with our communities.
What's a good way to name this kind of audience, and how could we
usefully solicit some stories like this?
