Like, here is a quick article that helps bring a lot of understanding 13:09:27 Marie can we ask for magazine people to link up commblog in front side of their page as well ? in order to promote more ? 13:09:32 (some informal chat or something?) 13:09:38 riecatnor: definitely 13:10:06 I am not sure about the Magazine, that is user-focused 13:10:35 it is user and our contributor focused plus there are more people looking over there compare to comm blog 13:11:00 #info our Taiga instances are retiring on December 17th 13:11:00 s/it is user and our contributor focused plus there are more people looking over there compare to comm blog/Yes it is our users and our contributors focused plus there are more people looking over there compare to comm blog / 13:11:00 #link https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/retiring-taiga-instance-on-teams-fedoraproject-org/ 13:12:03 aiui, Magazine = users Commblog = contributors 13:12:21 okay 13:12:36 I wonder if we have ever promoted elections on the magazine before? 13:12:55 https://fedoramagazine.org/?s=election 13:13:01 yes we did 13:13:25 since magazine is more focused on users and not community, we don't do that there nowadays from what I remember 13:13:56 Vipul Siddharth: and since we have "commblog" they just left out election and move on I think 13:13:59 I see we haven't done something sine 2017 13:14:16 yes, we do those on commblog now 13:14:31 #topic tickets 13:14:44 #link https://pagure.io/mindshare/issue/302 13:15:07 the thursday meeting had a chance to look a this, we suggested a replacement question 13:15:18 if everyone here is fine with the change, we can give bcotton the ok 13:15:27 +1 13:15:31 +1 too 13:16:00 I am okay with the change.. brainstorm: can we ask how they would improve mindshare visibility? 13:16:09 just discussing with y'all, not suggesting yet 13:16:14 +1 13:16:28 ohh, I like that question 13:16:33 Yeah 13:16:52 I think that one could be in addition? 13:17:01 yes It should be 13:17:14 I would like to see what interesting answers we get 13:17:45 "How would you improve Mindshare Committee visibility and awareness in the Fedora community?" 13:18:01 +1 13:18:13 +1 13:19:54 +1 13:20:02 cool, I commented 13:20:07 0 13:20:25 #link https://pagure.io/mindshare/issue/297 13:20:38 thank you Vipul Siddharth ! 13:20:51 not sure if this is a good goal, it seems like an intermediate step since the idea for Mindshare would be to improve Fedora's visibility and awareness 13:20:56 This is done, we are waiting on communication on their part 13:20:56 I passed the link last week and had a call today as well 13:21:02 this will be going out today 13:21:14 Do you think Clement needs some assistance with promotion? 13:21:24 tyll: i apologize, I think I moved too quick 13:21:28 riecatnor: I don't think so 13:21:29 it's all in place 13:21:31 Is this for the questions? 13:21:45 my comment was about the election questions 13:21:57 yes, should we move to the last topic? Till Maas has points on the question 13:22:20 right, tyll, can you explain a bit more? do you think we should reduce the questions? 13:22:49 yes, usually there are not many candidates, so too many questions can be an additional barrier 13:23:33 We are changing one, adding one 13:23:36 and regarding the question about how toimprovie Mindshare visibility, I am not sure that is a good fit for candidates - it kind of seems like the candidate interview will be used as a single survey 13:24:23 I mean, we will only have a couple people answering them.. its something we are trying to do.. I am not sure I would count it as a survey 13:24:43 I do see the point about too many questions being a barrier 13:24:52 I am curious how many questions are used for Council & FESCo 13:24:54 I mean the questions are more like you would ask as a survey not to identify good candidates 13:25:11 which questions? the ones we have used historically as well? 13:25:24 The question about increasing visibility for Mindshare 13:25:45 FESCo has 4 questions 13:26:08 council also has 4 13:26:18 For example, the open ended question about what Mindshare should do allows to understand more about the candidate - and they can mention that Mindshare needs to be promoted, more 13:27:15 Council started with 3 when we made the questions mandatory IIRC 13:27:25 So it is moving in the wrong direction IMHO 13:27:39 uh, maybe it was 4 13:28:00 I like it because makes the candidate needs to think outside the box but too many questions can be a bad idea 13:28:28 I think 4 is ok, I also like the new question, personally. And if we don't get anything good back, we can just remove it next time? 13:28:29 Well we only have 4 too so it is not much either ? 13:28:34 s/needs to// 13:29:29 please add your votes to the ticket, we should move to the next topic 13:29:45 votes and/or opinions :) 13:30:13 Right, thanks for your comments tyll 13:30:14 I guess if visibility is an important topic, it should have its own ticket in our system so we work on that 13:30:43 #link https://pagure.io/mindshare/issue/282 13:30:47 Currently I see one ticket without updates which does not imply it being important 13:30:54 a proposal I made, but no time to progress that 13:31:21 I also just wrote the blog post for the election 13:32:19 I would like to move back to the CoreOS survey 13:32:32 Vipul Siddharth: you mentioned you think promotion is covered? 13:32:40 ok, I will add my comments to the ticket or in my answer for the elecctions interview 13:32:47 thank you tyll! 13:33:06 riecatnor: yes 13:33:06 They will send emails/tweets today 13:33:20 how about a short blog post? 13:33:24 can be derived from the email 13:33:28 we can pin that on disussion 13:33:32 Vipul is link active ? (I can't opened it ?) 13:33:39 * Vipul, is 13:33:40 I can pass that on 13:33:40 let me see what they think 13:33:53 ok cool :) just trying to make sure all the bases get covered 13:34:04 OnuralpSezer[m]: no, Limesurvey is in update progress for now and I have suspended it 13:34:04 I am to ping Clement once it's ready to go 13:34:13 thank you 13:34:40 oh also, I will note to promote that during the release party 13:37:02 #link https://pagure.io/mindshare/issue/301 13:37:17 the alternate meeting reviewed this, please take a look 13:37:27 if everyone is fine, I think we can close that? 13:37:44 or, I can ask Mizmo if she needs anything more 13:38:12 yeah, since it was not really asking if we should or not but asking for design inspirations, I didn't comment anything 13:38:12 I am fine with going ahead with it 13:38:37 I think its asking if they have prioritized things correctly 13:38:51 but, it seems fine to me. I added that we will need to do ambassador shirts pretty soon as well 13:39:11 Awesome 13:39:20 oh, are we to get new ambassador tshirts?
