(@jflory7:fedora.im, 13:42:07) * INFO: How could we better support our DEI and regional communities in 2025? What might we focus on at the Flock hackfest? (@jflory7:fedora.im, 13:50:29) * IDEA: Local meetups as a starting point. Should they be Fedora-specific, or something more general? For example, open source meetup, a programming language meetup, a Linux meetup, etc. (@jflory7:fedora.im, 13:51:08) * IDEA: Using major regional events as gathering point of local community members. For #region-africa-west:fedoraproject.org, this could be OSCA Festival. For #region-saarc:fedoraproject.org, this could be GNOME Asia. (@jflory7:fedora.im, 13:51:44) * IDEA: We can leverage existing connections with local leaders and event organizers to help us coordinate a presence on the ground at these events. (@jflory7:fedora.im, 13:52:45) * IDEA: Extending the Fedora Ambassador program to West Africa. What does a regional mentor look like in 2024? What does a mentor do? What are their responsibilities? How can the DEI Team support regional mentors?
