Here are today's meeting notes. I've also added them to https://wiki.gnome.org/Engagement/TeamMeetings/28-APR-2017
Best, Nuritzi Meeting on April 28th AGENDA - Social media planning for May (Nuritzi) - 20th birthday agenda for next week (Nuritzi) - Promoting the community's personal fundraising campaigns (Nuritzi) Deferred to next meeting - Should we store our archived and stalled initiatives somewhere other than the bottom of these meeting notes? (Nuritzi) - What type of events belong on the GNOME calendar? (Nuritzi) ATTENDEES - Rosanna - Nuritzi - Bastian - Allan NOTES Social media for May - Board of Directors elections (check for the date with memberships committee) - Unixstickers promo - GNOME's 20th birthday - Linuxfest Northwest conference - Open SUSE conference Promoting the community's personal fundraising campaigns - There's a new patreon campaign around GTK https://www.patreon.com/baedert - We could try to promote these things if the community members would like us to - We should align our promotions with their own promotions to create more momentum - Engagement blog might be a good place to have these contributors and campaigns showcased - We might want to send an email to the Engagement list / Foundation list and tell them we are open to promoting patreon campaigns in this way. Do this only after a few tries and after we see how it goes. - Does this conflict with the "Adopt a Hacker" program we have on Friends of GNOME? We should make sure we still promote our own programs - We should make sure people's expectations are set to know that a bigger promotion (engagement blog post) will take a couple of weeks to do, it's not immediate. We can retweet things more easily/immediately though - ACTION: @Nuritzi Reach out to the new person and see if they want to be featured on the Engagement team blog. See if the other 2 from before would also like something similar (engagement blog feature and a promotion on social media) - ACTION: @Nuritzi to see if Cassandra can write the blog posts 20th birthday agenda for next week - Photo wall / video wall at the venue: goo.gl/0Q80Pt - The venue has a huge video wall that we could put videos on. Maybe Bastian wants to do something for that? [image: ;)] Maybe this could be screenshots of older versions of GNOME - Bastian is in touch with someone from an old GUADEC and that person has a bunch of old footage. Bastian has plans for some video material. - Another idea would be to have an animated clip or something - ACTION: @Bastian will plan on making a video to play on loop for the Birthday party * ACTION: @Allan to send out information for how to join the GUADEC Call next week to talk about 20th bday Newcomers Initiative - Questions on newcomer's channel is now more about code vs how to build things - We have 3 or 4 new Polari contributors and that's really significant since we haven't - Carlos has been busy fixing a lot of bugs and making sure that it works on distributions. They're working on making more apps avaiable through the newomer's initiative - We shuold check in with Carlos and see if there's anything else that has been added for publicity purposes to help make sure we keep momentum - We might want to have some shout outs from maintainers / mentors from projects that want newcomers to join their projects - We might want to circle back feedback from newcomers about what their experience has been so far - How can we be more data driven? We can see how many new authors there are committing code. Emmanuele is doing git stats on GTK. We may need to read how many new contributors in this release. - Newcomer app teams. Maybe we can showcase some of the new work being done. - ACTION: @Nuritzi to check in with Carlos about any new developments to see if we can post about some of them on social media. - ACTION: @Basitian to check in with newcomer app teams to see if they want to do a shout out or else showcase some of the new work being done in their projects. OTHER - *Bug Squash Month* - We thought it was great and we should plan a retrospective, perhaps at GUADEC. Plan for another bug squash month for October / November. - *GNOME Continuous* - We should see if we could get it working on VMs for an upcoming release. It'd be nice to promote GNOME Continuous as a way for people to get GNOME up and running quickly and help with QA. - We could have something similar to a bug squash day/month to help people get up and running ............................................................ ................. *Nuritzi Sanchez* | +1.650.218.7388 | Endless <http://endlessm.com/>
