Setup IRC Meeting for Contributor Experience

[gundalow]

See when people are available for the Contributor Experience meeting

What is Contributor Experience, why should I get involved?

• Put together a set of people with a focus on making it easier for good quality code to be merged into Ansible sooner.
• Collectively we can get bug fixes and features into Ansible which is to everybody's benefit
• Feedback from people new to contributing to Ansible is especially welcome

When

Weekly at:

• Tuesday 1400 UTC
• Tuesday 1500 UTC
• Wednesday 1900 UTC
• Thursday 1400 UTC

What if I can't make the meeting

We understand that some people can't make any, or in fact of them. Everything we do will be tracked via GitHub:

• Agenda: Contributor Experience Agenda #390
• Bigger project plan (needs prioritizing) https://github.com/orgs/ansible/projects/2

Meeting will be in #ansible-community

[gundalow]

Any of these times work for me

@dagwieers @pilou- @felixfontein @Shaps @agaffney @caphrim007 @emonty @jhawkesworth @mscherer @resmo @Shrews @trondhindenes @willthames @yungezz @geerlingguy @dsoper2

@ansible/ansible-community Would you be interested in this?

[decentral1se]

Yeah, I'd be happy to join this discussion! Any times are probably OK for me too these days.

[geerlingguy]

I would be interested, and the times look doable (later is better), so I’d try to make a few meetings for sure.

[agaffney]

My availability at 1400 UTC is spotty, and 1500 UTC isn't much better. I'm usually available at 1900 UTC.

[caphrim007]

1900 is better for me as well

[Shaps]

Wed 1900UTC

[pilou-]

Tue 1400 UTC / Tue 1500 UTC / Thu 1400 UTC

[felixfontein]

I'd prefer not Thursday, at least thinking long term. For now, all times are equally good/bad ;)

[mscherer]

Same as @pilou-

[rharolde]

Thursday 1400 UTC is best for me.
Wednesday 1900 UTC is second best.

[gundalow]

Thanks to all that have replied.
Any other comments before I pick a time?

[resmo]

I don't have any preferences, currently.

[evrardjp]

No other comments, go ahead :)

[gundalow]

Hi, so by the numbers Thursday 1900 UTC is best, so we will go with that.

That said I know that means we miss some people in EMEA, though as I'm also in EMEA we can look at having something earlier one day. Everything will be tracked online so you can follow what's happening on GitHub and IRC

Please all join #ansible-community and add-by-URL (don't download and add) https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ansible/community/master/meetings/ical/contributor_experience.ics

[tonk]

I personally like 19:00 UTC (or 18:00 UTC) because I'n in NL and during the day I absolutely have no chance to join. (Customer and teaching stuff). So, a little later is better.

[gundalow]

1. Please add by URL above .ics
2. Please join #ansible-community
3. Please subscribe to the agenda: Contributor Experience Agenda #390

[rharolde]

The calendar URL returns "error 404 not found" for me. Also, is there a link for where to join "#ansible-community" ?

@rharolde I made a typo, correct link is https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ansible/community/master/meetings/ical/contributor_experience.ics

All of the Meetings on Freenode IRC, so you'll want an IRC Client or to use a webclient like irccloud.com

For some of the #ansible-* IRC channels you need to Register with Freenode to verify your account, see https://freenode.net/kb/answer/registration
