Hi Foundation members,

Over the last few months, theEngagement Team has done some restructuring
and we wanted to share our updates with you!

As a reminder, the Engagement Team facilitates communication between
users, contributors, partners, and anyone else who might be interested
in the GNOME project. This includes working on projects like GNOME's
social media and news channels, as well as conference and event
organization.
During our restructuring, we coordinated our priorities for 2021-2022,
which you can read more about here:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/Teams/Engagement/General/-/wikis/home
<https://gitlab.gnome.org/Teams/Engagement/General/-/wikis/home>.
>From there we identified five main areas within the Engagement Team and
have assigned each a lead coordinator. Going forward these subgroups
will have regular working group meetings that are open to everyone.

We implementedthis new initiative for many reasons, the main being to
provide more transparency on our projects, and to make it easier for
more contributors from all over our community to join Engagement Team
projects. We hope that having clear priorities and project leads with
regular working group meetings will be more accessible to new
contributors and help them easily find a project they're interested in.

These are our five new subgroups:

  * Social Media: responsible for maintaining all GNOME social channels

  * Fundraising: works on grant applications and Foundation fundraising
    efforts

  * Events and Conferences: plans and coordinates GNOME events,
    including GUADEC

  * Onboarding: building a manageable and scalable onboarding system

  * Graphic Design: supports all Foundation and Engagement projects with
    graphic design work


Working group meetings for these subgroups will be scheduled here:
https://events.gnome.org/category/5/ <https://events.gnome.org/category/5/>

We hope that many of you will consider joining one of these groups or
attending a working group meeting!
If youareinterested inhelpingone of these areas please reply to this
email and we will get you in touch withthe respective team coordinator.


Thankyou,
Kristi
