Organizing

Communication

Making the space safe

  • Code of Conduct

    • TBD: print CoC
  • Moderation team
    • TBD: members
    • TBD: contact info
  • TBD: announce all this at least once a day

Misc

Food

We want to provide a lunch on both days. It shall be vegan to simplify handling diverse diet. The attendees table has a column for other diet desires and needs.

  • ACTION: intrigeri asks jcristau a quote from Mozilla's usual caterer, making it clear that we want vegan [WIP]

Accommodation

  • TBD: call for solidarity hosting
  • TBD: match hosting requests with offers
  • TBD: (if we have enough budget) book remaining needed hosting in a hostel, Airbnb or whatnot

Finances

  • ACTION: intrigeri starts looking for sponsorship [WIP]
    • ACTION: intrigeri asks the DPL [WIP]
    • ACTION: intrigeri thinks of other potential sponsors
  • TBD: ensure we can sponsor at least travel for potential new contributors who need it (one doesn't get a diverse set of attendees if only only-timers get support)

  • TBD: how to manage travel sponsorship requests? (assuming we have a budget for that)
    • make it clear there's a budget for that in the various announcements
    • receive and store requests, and at some point make a call
    • manage reimbursements
  • ACTION: intrigeri includes food in the support budget we're gonna ask to potential sponsors

Optimizing for a broader public

(i.e. not only Debian developers)

Reach out to, and properly welcome, people who can contribute to the quality assurance effort, with their pre-existing skills, in other ways than fixing bugs and uploading packages. E.g.

  • testing the upcoming version and providing feedback; evaluating the state of translations and the support of accessibility technologies could be interesting focuses;
  • triaging release blocking bugs (reproducing them, assessing their severity, pointing the relevant people to them);
  • providing feedback about "the top N things I dislike the most in the current Debian release, that I very much hope will be fixed in the next one";
  • collecting data relevant to the release notes.

Make it real once we're there

There will be people committing to host a station, i.e. holding some physical space dedicated to people with a given set of skills, and making it welcoming and productive.

  • ACTION: intrigeri discusses with Taka how the station about graphics and design can be organized [WIP]
  • ACTION: intrigeri discusses with Hypra how the focus on accessibility technologies/usecases can be organized [WIP]

Make it clear in our communication

  • ACTION: intrigeri writes a few lines about each station, and a sentence that says there might be more stations if we find hosts, that we can include in our announcements etc.
    • users testing/feedback, with a specific interest in accessibility technologies (intrigeri, jvoisin, Hypra)
    • bug triaging (Solveig, kibi)
    • design and graphics (to be confirmed)

Invites

TBD:

  • people who could give a hand organizing (e.g. spreading the word and themselves inviting cool people)
  • people we want to see there

Publicity

Announcement

  • TBD: review the draft /Announcement

  • ACTION: Geb will coordinate communication & publicity, and start to spread the word around Feb 10-12

  • We have a pad that's meant to list people & websites we want to send the announcement to. It's kept private as it contains social network information some of us prefer not to disclose publicly.
