<@ekidney:matrix.org>

It's all ready to go, just created a ticket re the header image so I can update it. But if we want to leave that till the next quarterly report thats all okay
<@jflory7:fedora.im>

<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:17:35
What was the update on the header image? I am not sure I understood
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:17:50
Is it to update the image?
<@ekidney:matrix.org>
13:18:24
I just wanted to add our logo to is and extend it better so that line isnt in it
<@ekidney:matrix.org>
13:18:31
I made a ticket here https://gitlab.com/fedora/dei/home/-/issues/42
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:18:34
Thanks for being here :D I think the best things might be either #30 or support on the Week of Diversity event in June. We can cover those next :)
<@jflory7:fedora.im>

Oh, Adrian Edwards jnsamyak, I should have shared this earlier to get an idea on how our meetings flow: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/dei/meetings/

!topic #19: Fedora Week of Diversity
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:23:50
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:24:08
Jona Azizaj (she/her): I will pass this one over to you :) Any updates or calls-to-action for FWD? How are things going?
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:24:24
Adrian Edwards, jnsamyak: This is a place where we could always use extra hands to help out for the virtual event in June :)
<@jonatoni:fedora.im>
13:24:32
Registration is open: https://pretix.eu/fedora/fwd2024/ ๐ŸŽ‰
<@jonatoni:fedora.im>
13:25:16
definitely some help with promotion will be super useful ๐Ÿ™‚
<@moralcode:fedora.im>
13:25:31
you mean like improving the process/tooling/automation? or just extra people to run/moderate the event?
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:26:05
Probably more of the second, but the first one could be interesting too.
<@jonatoni:fedora.im>
13:26:06
event production especially for the virtual event
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:26:21
Adrian Edwards: Also using the Pretix + Matrix invite functionality here.
<@moralcode:fedora.im>
13:26:44
relevant issue https://gitlab.com/fedora/commops/interns/-/issues/16
<@jnsamyak:matrix.org>
13:26:49
aha!
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:26:50
The way we are producing the Week of Diversity event will be the same as the Release Party.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:27:10
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:28:02
We can definitely get some things lined up with #marketing:fedoraproject.org after the Release Party.
<@moralcode:fedora.im>
13:28:04
as in like day-of programming/things for attendees to do? or like livestream/video production/editing the recordings after the fact?
<@jonatoni:fedora.im>
13:28:29
second part
<@moralcode:fedora.im>
13:28:40
(hope im not holding things up with questions - ive attended a few large events but never really been on the organizer end of one)
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:29:33
Nope, this time is for questions and discussion like this :)
<@jonatoni:fedora.im>
13:29:54
I think we will learn a lot from the Release Party for the event production ๐Ÿ˜…
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:30:13
jnsamyak: Not sure how interested you are in Matrix bot dev. There are some interesting use cases that could be enabled with the automation for inviting people to Matrix rooms.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:30:30
But if that is interesting, you and Adrian Edwards could collab on that.
<@jnsamyak:matrix.org>
13:31:14
Justin W. Flory (he/him): I was just looking into that, I'll see how the zodbot is configured, but may be we can leverage ansible for such things,
<@jnsamyak:matrix.org>
13:31:44
+1 always interested in colloborating :D
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:32:13
jnsamyak: Check out that GitLab issue in the intern repository, and drop a comment there if you are interested :)
<@jnsamyak:matrix.org>
13:32:31
I haven't looked yet but can someone point me out to where the list of members are?
<@jnsamyak:matrix.org>
13:32:48
Justin W. Flory (he/him): thanks shall do ๐ŸŽ‰
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:32:50
Jona Azizaj (she/her): Any other call-outs or asks for help to the wider team on FWD? Anything else to cover here for the meeting today?
<@moralcode:fedora.im>
13:32:51
feel free to ping me in DMs or something if you want to set something up! most of my current plans/sketches are findable from that GL issue!
<@bittin:fedora.im>
13:33:00
maybe talk to the FOSDEM Matrix people? know they had some great setups for things
<@jonatoni:fedora.im>
13:33:14
One last thing: https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/join-us-in-crafting-a-video-for-fedora-week-of-diversity/116728
<@moralcode:fedora.im>
13:33:23
where might I be able to find them?
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:33:28
List of attendees for the Week of Diversity? We are using Pretix as the source of information. But there were some interesting LDAP integrations that might also be useful here too.
<@bittin:fedora.im>
13:33:38
Matthew Hodgson not sure if they want paid however for expertise or not
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:33:40
<@bittin:fedora.im>
13:34:13
https://github.com/ara4n
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:34:21
Matthew is one of the directors/devs at Element / the Matrix Foundation. We may want to ping a FOSDEM organizer instead
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:34:28
I imagine Matthew is a very, very busy person
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:34:48
Alasdair (sp?) is probably someone we could ask on that
<@bittin:fedora.im>
13:35:13
yeah think the Matrix people set up all their infra and bot stuff however but yeah maybe there is someone better to talk too
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:35:14
But yeah, FOSDEM does have a lot of great automation
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:35:34
Also, on this post, I plan to promote it on social media a bit. I was also talking with Chris Onoja Idoko about shoulder-tapping some people to submit a video
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:35:42
Perhaps that would help to get more visibility on the submissions?
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:36:15
Former Outreachy interns are an option. Nikita Tripathi, Anushka Jain, Shraddha Agrawal are three names that come to mind for me. Masha Leonova is another name, a former member of the Fedora Design Team who did a lot in Fedora.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:36:59
Also trying to think of people whom we did not interview in 2020 for Women's Day: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL0x39xti0_64NxdF68V6eZ1JWUQtHbR3E
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:37:52
!idea Individually "shoulder-tapping" interview candidates for videos might be helpful and solicit interesting stories
<@jonatoni:fedora.im>
13:38:17
+1, shoulder-tapping should help us ๐Ÿ™‚

13:38:46

I like the template, it is short and sweet
<@jflory7:fedora.im>

Do we always ask for a Fedora Discussion intro? I can't remember
<@bittin:fedora.im>
13:49:34
guess i did not have to do that, but guess it changed over the years maybe?
<@bittin:fedora.im>
13:50:00
or i am already to well known
<@jonatoni:fedora.im>
13:50:06
Nope, but it was in the ticket as a suggestion that's why I added it
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:52:24
I see
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:52:36
Having intros are probably good. I am just not sure if we do them in a standard way

It's not mandatory, but I would keep it there so we start doing it
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:53:12
I believe our current process was ratified in 2020 or 2021, I forget
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:53:22
That seems fine to me :)
<@bittin:fedora.im>
13:53:29
same might scare away trolls that don't have the energy to write a forum thread before they troll, but also scare away people with little time to have an extra step before they become a member, but guess people can still contribute without being offical members
<@jflory7:fedora.im>

+1 to this template
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:54:22
Right. Nearly everything we do here does not require someone to be an official member of the team. This leaves room for varying levels of participation.
<@bittin:fedora.im>
13:54:47
yep well its all open source after all
<@jnsamyak:matrix.org>
13:55:02
so "knock knock" officially i need to write an introductory blog for me?:P
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
13:55:08
Does anyone else have feedback on the new member template?
<@jnsamyak:matrix.org>
13:55:22
otherwise, I'm not the dei member? XD
