Re: [WG: Sharpeners] Proposed - Sharpeners

Thanks, Rich. I think we have been headed in this direction for some time now and something like this is needed. Many thanks for coming up with a concrete proposal. I have one suggestion for improvement, which is in part a problem statement. Instead of just subscribing to the private@ list, I w

AW: [WG: Sharpeners] Proposed - Sharpeners

Hi Rich, I love every line of it … the only thing I would possibly “fine tune” in the text, would be to be a bit more explicit: “You must not already be a member of the PMC.” -> “You must not already be a member of the PMC that you wish to join as Sharpener.” Cause I was a bit confused which of

Re: [WG: Sharpeners] Proposed - Sharpeners

This is another great idea. You mentioned objections along the lines of "who are you to tell me what to do?" Most volunteers do better with some direction, rather than being told "just submit a PR" or "just contribute." Most volunteers, especially new volunteers such as myself, find that lack o

[WG: Social Media] Proposed - Social Media working group

This one’s pretty simple. We need folks who will figure out how to maintain our social media presence, and that of our projects, more effectively. We are currently not doing awesome at this - at best, we’re inconsistent. At our worst, we are sending out messaging that is not aligned with the Fou
