Task #1847
closed
Added by Florian Effenberger almost 9 years ago.
Updated almost 8 years ago.
Target version:
Team - Recurring
Description
New volunteers need to be onboarded on a regular basis.
Things to share:
- how we do things
- how to use the tools
- introduction to writing styles and style guides
New volunteers:
Sylvia Sanchez (access to ODFAuthors)
Andrew Wetmore
Peter Toye (helpcontent)
Can you give another status update on how the volunteer situation developed?
Simon Quigley: Assinged a task but I had to (politely) take over because he was not productive. I will assign an easier task later.
Roger Caw: came in and is now gone, the documentation tasks available was not in his expectations
Leo Moons: Showed up in first 2 meetings but he is more concerned into volunteering for flemish (nl-BE) translations
Getting more volunteers in should be a priority - this is also part of
the community inolvement discussions we had in the team, as this seems
to be a problem of several communities. Writing all on your own doesn't
scale so well, so getting volunteers in and encouraging people,
spreading the word, doing outreach should be a priority; I assume Mike
Saunders can help from the marketing POV.
New contributor: Andrea Mussap
Can you give a quick status update on the contributor situation, any new supporters on the horizon?
Onboarded:
Christina Accione
Chandanathil P. Geevan
Fabio Biochetti
- Status changed from In Progress to Closed
Onboarding volunteers actually is a task for all TDF team members
Currently restructuring the tickets a bit, so closing this one; I'll follow-up with separate tickets on calls, EasyHacks etc.
