2024-04-25 13:17:28 <@misc:ephaone.org> (so I will likely be able to resume work on it after some big event from my employer in the coming month)
2024-04-25 13:17:46 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> misc okay, so we can keep the action item and check next time 🙂

2024-04-25 13:21:04 <@zodbot:fedora.im> Consolation Obazee (obazeeconsole) - she / her / hers
2024-04-25 13:21:45 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> Hi obazeeconsole 👋
2024-04-25 13:23:09 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> I'm not sure if Amita is still here, but she shared the proposal for a panel discussion for Fedora Mentor Summit
2024-04-25 13:23:49 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> #info Amita has applied for a panel discussion for FMS, inviting mentors to share their experience
2024-04-25 13:24:23 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> obazeeconsole you have been working on the article for FMS, can you please add it as draft on CommBlog
2024-04-25 13:24:35 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> same as you did for Fedora Week of Diversity?
2024-04-25 13:24:53 <@jflory7:fedora.im> The last I looked, there were 7 or 8 submissions for CFP. 
2024-04-25 13:25:09 <@jflory7:fedora.im> !info Amita has applied for a panel discussion for FMS, inviting mentors to share their experience
2024-04-25 13:25:36 <@jflory7:fedora.im> Which doesn't sound like many but some are longer workshops and we have a shorter schedule on Saturday.
2024-04-25 13:25:45 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> Thanks Justin 😅 not sure why I wrote the wrong command 🤦
2024-04-25 13:25:46 <@jflory7:fedora.im> I think we will have some good content to choose from this year 
2024-04-25 13:25:55 <@jflory7:fedora.im> I like some of the workshop ideas 
2024-04-25 13:26:14 <@jflory7:fedora.im> Old habits die hard! 😅 It was # in the IRC days
2024-04-25 13:26:25 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> that's awesome 🎉
2024-04-25 13:26:33 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> Indeed 😅
2024-04-25 13:26:34 <@ami117:matrix.org> yeah, here
2024-04-25 13:26:38 <@ami117:matrix.org> doing multitasking
2024-04-25 13:26:45 <@ami117:matrix.org> what is the question please?
2024-04-25 13:27:00 <@jflory7:fedora.im> Any updates?
2024-04-25 13:27:06 <@jflory7:fedora.im> How are things going with FMS? 
2024-04-25 13:27:08 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> we already shared the proposal you submitted for FMS
2024-04-25 13:27:14 <@ami117:matrix.org> I need some info from Justin W. Flory (he/him) on mentors side, I need list of potential people who can be reached out
2024-04-25 13:27:15 <@jflory7:fedora.im> Any areas that need help? 
2024-04-25 13:27:41 <@jflory7:fedora.im> For CFP?
2024-04-25 13:27:43 <@ami117:matrix.org> Jona Azizaj (she/her): you can also please help if you have insight on who will be there at Flock and is a good fit
2024-04-25 13:28:33 <@jflory7:fedora.im> We are looking good on submissions so far.
2024-04-25 13:28:41 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> For the moment we are on track with the Mentors Summit I would say - Amita needs some help with mentors suggestions for the panel
2024-04-25 13:29:00 <@jflory7:fedora.im> Ahhh the panel, got it
2024-04-25 13:29:04 <@ami117:matrix.org> correct
2024-04-25 13:29:47 <@ami117:matrix.org> correct for the panel
2024-04-25 13:29:52 <@jflory7:fedora.im> Marie and Smera are two names that come to mind, and they also have the mentor/mentee connection too 
2024-04-25 13:29:56 <@ami117:matrix.org> so that I can reach out to them in time
2024-04-25 13:30:00 <@jflory7:fedora.im> But they have also submitted a workshop for the Summit too
2024-04-25 13:30:22 <@ami117:matrix.org> that should not be a problem to be in panel
2024-04-25 13:30:34 <@ami117:matrix.org> assuming they are not scheduled in parallel 
2024-04-25 13:30:42 <@jflory7:fedora.im> You could ask both of them and see what they think. 
2024-04-25 13:30:54 <@ami117:matrix.org> Justin and Jona - how about you two?
2024-04-25 13:30:56 <@jflory7:fedora.im> No, the Mentor Summit is the only track on Saturday.
2024-04-25 13:31:01 <@ami117:matrix.org> will you be able to participate?
2024-04-25 13:31:07 <@ami117:matrix.org> I know Justin will be too busy
2024-04-25 13:31:36 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> I would prefer new people to join the panel, but if needed I can definitely join 🙂 
2024-04-25 13:31:59 <@jflory7:fedora.im> I could probably think up some other names. I'll likely know more once the CFP goes from blind review to deanonymized in early May
2024-04-25 13:32:14 <@ami117:matrix.org> cool
2024-04-25 13:32:21 <@ami117:matrix.org> so I still have time to send the invite
2024-04-25 13:32:43 <@jflory7:fedora.im> I can't see the identities of everyone who has submitted in the CFP until May 6th if I recall. That is around when we make the final calls for selection 
2024-04-25 13:33:14 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> makes sense, so let's check that information later then 🙂
2024-04-25 13:33:25 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> anything else to add on the Fedora Mentor Summit topic?
2024-04-25 13:34:35 <@jflory7:fedora.im> Roland Taylor and ffmancera are also names that come to mind 
2024-04-25 13:34:40 <@jflory7:fedora.im> But that's all I have for now. 
2024-04-25 13:34:57 <@jflory7:fedora.im> Seems like things are going steady
2024-04-25 13:35:22 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> It's easier when is co-located with another event
2024-04-25 13:35:28 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> especially with Flock 🙂

2024-04-25 13:37:28 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> All good for now, thanks a lot for all your help 🎉
2024-04-25 13:37:30 <@ami117:matrix.org> I know there are AIs on me for diversity week
2024-04-25 13:37:39 <@ami117:matrix.org> but that should be taken care of this weekend
2024-04-25 13:37:53 <@ami117:matrix.org> bye for now, thanks lovely folks
2024-04-25 13:38:06 <@jflory7:fedora.im> Thanks for being here Amita! 
2024-04-25 13:38:28 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> so for Fedora Week of Diversity we have opened CFP: https://cfp.fedoraproject.org/fwd-2024/cfp 🎉
2024-04-25 13:38:41 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> Deadline to apply is May 11
2024-04-25 13:38:52 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> We have an article coming up soon

2024-04-25 13:40:16 <@jflory7:fedora.im> How are we on submissions so far? 
2024-04-25 13:40:44 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> 0 so far 
2024-04-25 13:40:51 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> because we haven't promoted it yet
2024-04-25 13:40:54 <@jflory7:fedora.im> Got it. 
2024-04-25 13:41:07 <@jflory7:fedora.im> This would be a good place to do some shoulder-tapping. 
2024-04-25 13:41:24 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> +100 yes definitely
2024-04-25 13:41:26 <@jflory7:fedora.im> The timeline is tight so we likely need to make some specific asks to folks 
2024-04-25 13:41:42 <@jflory7:fedora.im> I know we have a theme but did we have an ideal format for content? 
2024-04-25 13:41:56 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> I need to do some follow ups with the team too so we can promote it on social media and Fedora Discussion 
2024-04-25 13:42:23 <@jflory7:fedora.im> We could also ask some teams if they'd like to run a social event, like Fedora Pride did at the last release party. 
2024-04-25 13:43:00 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> Talks, workshops, panel discussions and social activities we have added as suggestions
2024-04-25 13:44:01 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> !action: Amita to check with Fedora Pride team if they can run a social event like they did at the last release party

2024-04-25 13:45:52 <@jflory7:fedora.im> I'll do some nudging for the CFP too
2024-04-25 13:46:01 <@jflory7:fedora.im> Oh, right 
2024-04-25 13:46:06 <@jflory7:fedora.im> There is an announcement planned? 
2024-04-25 13:46:23 <@jflory7:fedora.im> We can do some light socializing on an announcement post if it is in progress 
2024-04-25 13:46:27 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> yes - we have an article for CommBlog 
2024-04-25 13:46:46 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> which I'm not sure when it will be published 😅
2024-04-25 13:47:17 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> obazeeconsole already posted on Fedora Discussion about the draft 
2024-04-25 13:47:56 <@jflory7:fedora.im> Awesome 
2024-04-25 13:47:58 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> But I plan to follow up on this during the weekend 
2024-04-25 13:48:08 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> and work on the announcement 
2024-04-25 13:48:28 <@jonatoni:fedora.im> I know Oluwakanyinsola Obadeyi (Kanyin) has drafted something also for social media
2024-04-25 13:49:58 <@jflory7:fedora.im> Oh right, it is up for review!
