ComDev Inventory Stocktake

2017-04-10 Thread Sharan Foga
Hi Everyone

I'd like to do a ComDev inventory stocktake :-) so that we can have a common 
understanding of exactly what tools or applications we have at our disposal.

What is Community Development currently responsible for. What websites do we 
maintain? What pages (internal or external do we currently update?) What other 
tasks are we responsible for or co-ordinate? What social media accounts do we 
run? What other applications do we use?

So why do a stocktake?
Things and people change over time and sometimes information is lost. Perhaps 
we already have a tool that can help someone, it's just that we didn't realise 
that we had it! 

Also perhaps someone has been doing  a task and is the only one that knows how 
to do it. Sharing the knowledge also helps share the workload. 

I know that we have some resources at the links below: (so will be using them 
as a starting point)

https://community.apache.org/about/

https://community.apache.org/newbiefaq.html#comdevweb

So if you know of anything else that doesn't appear then please let me know and 
we'll start putting a complete list together.

Ideally we would want to know what the tool, application or task is, who the 
main contact person is, and any knowledge about how to access and use it.

Thanks
Sharan

Hey Sharan,

Thanks for sharing.

However in the footer updated date is showing wrong date (shows January 14). 

I was wondering if I can update this.

Best Regards,

I suggest that most of the details of the tool and how to maintain it
should be in documentation files in the source code repo.
That will be much easier to maintain.
The comdev website should only contain brief details that are don't
need maintenance.

Crowdsourcing ApacheCon video

2017-04-10 Thread Rich Bowen
FYI: I'm going to try, once again, to crowdsource ApacheCon video.

https://s.apache.org/7NtF

also, https://twitter.com/ApacheCon/status/851408157406613504

Just having the video on YouTube would be a win over *not* having any
video at all, even if the production quality isn't awesome.

Please participate if you have a decent video camera. I'll be bringing mine.

While it's kind of not ComDev, it kind of is, so it's worth mentioning
that "we" have a Wordpress.com account where we are hosting
feathercast.apache.org, and this is (or, perhaps, we'd like to make it)
a part of our community promotion effort.

Yes - and we need to more clearly provide pointers (than the below) so
we don't forget what's what when services go down or someone wants to
contribute something new to a service.


# Snoot access for projects https://snoot.io/
PMC members (only) may signup with @apache.org email and a code at:
  https://preview.snoot.io/signup.html
Not strictly a comdev responsibility, but an obvious place to link it.

# Twitter handle list of projects
https://github.com/trikaladvisers/opensource/blob/master/ASF-Projects-having-Twitter-List.html
May need validation.  Also is GPL, so we can't publish it.

It will also help to note which services are ComDev responsibility vs.
infra responsibility.  We need to make sure people know not to complain
to infra when a ComDev service needs work.  8-)

Similarly: there are a lot of new ideas, some informational /
documentation, and some using code, that people are exploring.  It would
be helpful to have a single place to list those efforts.  I.e. I agree
with sebb elsethread that technical documentation belongs alongside the
code - but having a single central "these are new projects someone *is*
working on" place to point out would be helpful.  I'd recommend a new
page on the website, personally.

Keynote suggestions for ApacheCon

2017-04-10 Thread Rich Bowen
A number of our proposed keynotes for ApacheCon have fallen through. I
wonder if anyone here has a suggestion for a speaker - preferably
someone that you actually have contact information for - who would be an
inspiring, entertaining spokesperson for something relevant to the
Apache community.

Thanks.

One option that David (with his LF hat on) and I are working on is promoting
this 
https://apachecon2017.sched.com/event/9zp9/panel-discussion-how-to-succeed-in-iot-20-abhi-arunachalam-battery-ventures-sudip-chakrabarti-lightspeed-venture-partners-james-pace-runtime-roman-shaposhnik-pivotal
to the keynote slot.

Honestly, given the caliber of speakers and especially if we can also
have Zaheda Bhorat join us -- it would be a shame to constrain this
to a regular slot.

Thanks,
Roman.

My impression right now is that this is already a confirmed thing, and
we're looking for *another* one.
