Dear Fedora Join mailing list,
Would be possible to do a Spin of Fedora focuses into Education? Same
to Edubuntu to uses into Classrooms for children, teenagers and more
degrees?
Cheers!
Hi,
We talked about making it easier for folks to join the Fedora community
at last week's meeting. I've been thinking about it a little. I think
the work flow could be changed (tweaked) just a little. Each team has
their own system. I was wondering if we could have a sort of unified
system:
- A FAS group: "fedora-newbie"
This would:
- let people post to the planet. This requires fedorapeople space,
but I wonder if we can come up with another method of providing access
to the planet. I've seen many prospective ambassadors ask this question.
Since they aren't part of any non-cla groups, they can't post to the
planet and it becomes just a little more difficult to tell the community
what they're up to. Maybe we could set up a separate fedora-newbie
fedorapeople space where these newbies could add their planet files, if
individual fedorapeople space isn't OK? We'll need to talk to infra
about this.
- Make it easy for the entire community to interact with people that
are in the process of joining the community: you just need to query the
group.
- the fedora-join mailing list and IRC channel will be the official
channel for fedora-newbies: fedora-join will be the community side of
this process. We help fedora-newbies with whatever issues they may have.
- fedora-newbies will be required to provide monthly updates: this will
tell us who is active, and who isn't. The FAS can be cleaned up every
six months to remove people who aren't active.
- we could hold bi-weekly fedora-join meetings where newbies can
introduce themselves, and community members can hop in to communicate
with them in a completely informal setting. We could even hold weekly
meetings such that alternate meetings are held in different timezones,
making fedora-join accessible to people around the globe. Community
could each turn up at meetings that fit their timezones.
I stole the last few steps from the infra team. I think they have the
best and easiest join process. They create a fi-apperentice group and
give newbies access to some infra that enables them to learn how
fedora-infra works. At each meeting, new people that want to join the
infra team introduce themselves. They send out a "Meeting agenda item:
self introduction: John Doe" e-mail to the mailing list beforehand. Each
month, Kevin starts a thread "Monthly status report for fi-apperentices"
where all group members provide short updates and ask queries etc.
While people are in the fedora-newbies group, we'll help them join a
team, removing them from the fedora-newbies group once they've been
approved to a team group. The teams can use their FAS groups properly,
to grant infra access. In the mean time, the newbies will still be part
of the community, even if they aren't officially part of any Fedora
teams.
This will work well for other teams, such as ambassadors: Prospective
ambassadors can communicate with the community while they're still in
the mentorship process.
I would really like to see something of the sort for all of Fedora. The
initial idea was to make Fedora Join the *single* stop for anyone that
wants to join the community. We'll have to communicate with the other
teams, sure, but it's a start.
Comments?

So, we've got this Join SIG, and then there's also a Welcome SIG:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Welcome_SIGhttp://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Join_SIG
I wonder if these should be consolidated? Or if not, made interlinked and
the distinction made more clear?

Sure! Should I create a whenisgood event to help plan it out? It's been
quite a while since we met on the IRC.
PS: also posting to the fedora-join ML so that the team is aware of
this.

Hi,
I intend to take a ROS RPM packaging session at the upcoming FUDCon at
Beijing in May. With that in mind, I'd like to take a couple of
workshops to help interested parties learn the tools before the final
hack session, so that we can get some actual work done at the event. A
workshop a week should be fine:
Week #1: Introduction to ROS - what is ROS, why it'll be good to package
it up for Fedora
Week #2: Introduction to RPM packaging - a basic introduction where
we'll walk through the hello world package
Week #3: Introduction to SCL and ROS packaging
Week #4: Q&A session
The FUDCon is still 7 weeks away. That gives us enough time.
Please forward this e-mail to the regional mailing lists, and anyone
interested in the topics, *especially* people that plan to attend the
FUDCon and contribute to Fedora as package maintainers.
If you'd like to attend the sessions, please fill in the whenisgood
event organizer before Sunday, April 13. We will begin next week.

Pre-requisites:
- Please create an FAS account. The "Join the package maintainers wiki
page" tells you how.
- Please learn how to use the IRC:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_use_IRC
- Nothing else!
