November writing workshop agenda 19:39:02 #link https://scalar.vector.im/etherpad/p/fedora-test 19:39:02 In about a week we have the next session. 19:39:12 I'm looking forward to it. 19:40:47 agenda for onboarding is shared on mastodon (using my erssonal account) and discussion. Great if marketing team can send it by official Fedora account. 19:40:55 Basically, it is a repitition of our first session targetting to another time zone. 19:41:21 last few days the team was swamped with release schedule, so I didn't nag them. 19:41:55 yes, in advance and with clear target audience 19:42:32 Regarding marketing team, maybe we should make a proposition (eh, my external translator just blow up, maybe my wording is completely wrong) 19:43:39 they repurposed the wording of my personal post with marketing twis, which is helpful to grab attention. Can you ask them? 19:44:21 marketing team can rephrase my post. I don't have energy to write more 19:44:27 What should I ask? 19:44:44 i just want to show and tell and engage with them 19:44:56 Ah, I should ask them to spread the info. 19:45:01 wright? 19:45:11 right? 19:45:12 yes correct 19:45:26 OK, I'll do that. 19:45:27 1 week before and 1 day before 19:45:32 Thanks 19:45:34 It' 19:46:11 It's a good idea that both of us get active on all actions. 19:46:32 Probably with different intensity, but nevertheless 19:46:39 also we will repeat what agenda and audience expectation, so we caan stay on track 19:47:17 i'm okay to moderate, but it is messy for new people to listen to our quibble 19:47:46 Should we introduce out meeting as a opportunity to additionally discuss about anything of interest? 19:48:20 i'd say Q&A session is a perfect opportunity to get feedback. 19:48:23 maybe to bridge the time untill next writing tothether event. 19:48:55 You mean the Q&A section in the meeting, Iguess? 19:49:01 sort of 'next step' at the end of session 19:49:19 yes the Q&A in the meeting 19:49:40 OK, yes, next step is a good idea 19:50:25 I guess, that's it for the moment? 19:50:52 regarding tihis topic 19:51:03 do you feel we need to change the content and format for onboarding or ok for initial plan? 19:51:36 Do you mean the etherpad doc? 19:51:46 lack of interacttion and returning guests is strange to me 19:52:10 Yes, to me, too. 19:52:14 yes on the etherpad, the agenda is almost same as belore. 19:53:08 all I can think of may be the content is not they expected or they joined to oversee..don't know. 19:53:28 it happens at my day work, too. 19:53:32 Yes, I think we decided about some variation of our first session. 19:54:03 i can only ensure people know the agenda and objectives that match their interest 19:54:21 first one is, to make shorter presentations by ourself and to ask for questions or ideas to start interactiveness 19:54:43 we should try to start a discussion 19:54:52 and exchange anyhow 19:55:06 do you mean start with getting questions first? 19:55:35 No not first, but after the first, very short presentation / introduction. 19:55:56 that requires the highest level of interaction - Even stronger than press conference 19:56:17 And we should include your idea "next stelp" about 15 mins before close 19:56:26 i misundertood. ok after the short presentation 19:57:09 yes, much shorter as my interduction last time. It was too long. 19:57:11 onboarding is 30 min, so we can go over it quicker than track 2 hands-on workshop 19:57:39 wee can share the bio instead 19:57:58 Yeah, I hope it is not too short. Just in case we get into a vivid discussion 19:58:03 go straight to agenda and expected audience to be clear about expectationn 19:58:36 what do you mean with "share the bioop instead"? 19:59:11 bioop -> bio 19:59:21 i;m okay witth 20:04:35 back 20:04:50 Welcome back :-) 20:05:26 back i hope 20:06:16 I got the idea, should we shortly discuss the agenda and how to put it forward in a video call? 20:06:23 i got logs reserved in Konversation (KDE IRC client) yay 20:06:29 Probably Monday or so? 20:07:02 that's good for me. what time? 20:07:23 I have no fixed date. So, what is best for you? 20:08:27 no fixed appointments, seens the better term 20:08:42 i can do at lunch time (13:00 in German time) or evening 20:30 (19:30 UK time) 20:09:04 Evening would be mor comforable for me. 20:09:25 but 13:00 would be OK, too 20:09:34 it it is better for your family 20:10:25 i agree evening is better for me. no interruption from work commitment 20:10:53 OK, Monday 20:30 German / 19':30 UK. 20:11:21 Looking forward! It is much nicer and more productive then all gthis typing 20:11:52 Let's switch tro text topic ? 20:12:12 so Monday 13 Nov - link is here https://meet.jit.si/moderated/55f82d00c5fdf7ab39ead5bcd27de170b3ce8c505ceac34cd5f2b052039a4094 20:12:40 yes next 20:12:58 Link copied. Thanks for it. 20:13:10 topic 2. Docs Communication plan 20:13:20 #link https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/93411 20:14:04 I've learned from the experience so far, we should put more attention to our "marketing" 20:14:31 Allthough, that's new territory for me. 20:15:07 yes, we need more effort and support to get our voice heard..I dropped in to various social channels and WTD as a random person. 20:15:34 I regret we need more structure. 20:15:34 I guess, there are no sessions on the release party as last time, and the times before. 20:16:07 What is WTD? 20:16:55 the Write the Docs team (Alan Bowman is active there), Matthew mentioned in discourse 20:17:29 one pady from WTD came to the workshop in ctober 20:17:34 lady 20:17:43 Oh, I think we urgently need the "Jargon buster" think you proposed :-) 20:18:11 i'm with you on that..it could 'break the ice' 20:18:33 Yeah. 20:18:47 the most frightening moment is when existing members throw out docs vernacular in the meeting 20:18:53 Do you know some details about the release party? 20:19:12 That would be a good opportunity 20:19:39 still reviewing. I'd say time is pressed for release, not the party 20:19:54 Yeah. 20:20:03 i can drop in to listen in. I already registered 20:20:29 way to ambitious to send out agenda less than 3 days before the event 20:20:47 Registered on the hopin page? 20:21:08 well, the event start on Friday, in 2 days. 20:21:41 And I didn't see any agenda yet. 20:21:55 yes. Friday is my working day afternoon, so I can sneak in few minutes during my coffee break but can't join in full 20:22:20 I reserved the time to attend all the time. 20:22:37 Welll. it's just on talk by Metthew until now. 20:24:49 what other topics before we finish? 20:25:36 We need to talk about the Release Notes, I think. I'll switch. 20:25:52 #topic 3. Experiences with automatically generating Release Notes 20:26:24 We should evaluate the first run of automatically generate the release notes 20:27:14 I read a remark by pbokoc, that the content of the cange proposals were not really useful. 20:27:34 sure. It will be easier for me to share ideas after it is done. 20:27:45 Did you check the quality and coompleteness of the release notes? 20:27:56 i saw your interaction with Petr Bokoc and Francois 20:28:21 TBH i have no understanding on rel notes it is beyond me 20:29:35 OK, yes, it is very technically in some sections. And many things are a bit (too) sparse 20:29:59 So, I'll start a thread on discussion. 20:30:26 Well, I think, we can close now, and skip Open Floor? 20:30:59 no problem, thanks for todau 20:31:17 Yes, see you on Monday!!!! 20:31:23 yep 20:31:28 #endmeeting
