Hi Everyone,
As part of improving our communication to stakeholders who represent
community and business needs, I will be sending this high level project
report to stakeholders who are invited to our quarterly planning in advance
of the internal CPE teams upcoming project review sessions as a preview of
what we are looking ar for Q3, and as an opportunity for you to reach out
to me should you have a project you would like to prioritize, and why.
This is at a very high level, so I would encourage you to read the bullet
points below, and then review our project kanban board available here,
which has pdfs of the project briefs attached per card with more granular
detail in advance of our quarterly planning meeting on June 18th

worked on in Q3. However, they are projects that have been scoped in enough
detail to make an informed decision on and thus will be considered.

Just curious, is this a different idea from the Fedora Join SIG
on-boarding ticket tracker?
https://pagure.io/fedora-join/Welcome-to-Fedora/issues
It feels like this might already be the envisioned system but not sure
if there is overlap there.

+1.

Oh, wiki pages are requirements? I don't ever remember this coming up
when I became an Ambassador. How long was that a requirement?
Also, is this before or after we disabled non-CLA+1 wiki account
registrations because of wiki spam?

Oh, I did not know Ambassadors in any region were meeting regularly. Do
you have links to any recent meetings? I must have missed them!

The Fedora Code of Conduct asks others to be considerate and to be
respectful. Multiple times in this thread, you make bad-faith
assumptions about the intentions and experiences of others. You are not
being considerate or respectful.

The gate-keeping of the "Ambassador" title has always disturbed me. Now
I better remember why I avoid using the Ambassador title, because some
specific people come and tell me I am not using it right and that it is
for "experienced community members" only.
Whatever being an "experienced community member" means anyways. :-)

Hi Mindshare, Stephen, and Fedora Council,
Stephen Snow is working on creating a set of Fedora Moderation
Guidelines for community moderators:
https://pagure.io/ModeratorGuidelines/tree/master
I want to give this community work a call-out because it is
strategically important work to standardize moderation best practices in
a large, decentralized community like Fedora.
Stephen is leading good work here and it is an opportunity to
collaborate instead of starting from scratch. There is great potential
for Fedora to innovate on a new kind of First in open source community
management best practices, aligning with the Friends Foundation.
I'm resharing this conversation from #fedora-mindshare in IRC to the
Mindshare mailing list for context:
