I think we need someone to take on this task. 05:08:02 <kavit> I think a few people from the TC were happy to help 05:08:28 <kavit> this could be a part of the outreach 05:08:47 <rolandchan> OK. So, we need to pull the TC into the Diversity process. We had one volunteer, lets get the US based people to invite them all along to the meeting. 05:09:12 <rolandchan> #action US team to invite TC members to Diversity WG meetings. 05:09:25 <rolandchan> oh, yeah. Bot hates me. 05:09:36 <kavit> rolandchan, we should talk to tom, there is some talk of a starter pack for new UG in the ambassadors group, we could work with them 05:09:40 <kavit> #chair rolandchan 05:09:41 <openstack> Current chairs: kavit rolandchan 05:09:45 <rolandchan> excellent. 05:09:50 <kavit> please try again 05:09:53 <rolandchan> #action US team to invite TC members to Diversity WG meetings. 05:10:26 <rolandchan> Openstack bot is not very inclusive 05:10:36 <rolandchan> moving on 05:11:19 <rolandchan> Onboarding element. So I have reviewed the various "getting started" type content, and it's disorganised. there's some duplication and projects have many different ways of doing things 05:12:24 <rolandchan> I think it would be useful to have some common formats/locations/style etc to getting people oriented. 05:12:46 <rolandchan> obviously that's something that needs buy in from the various project teams. 05:13:04 <rolandchan> and assuming that occurs, the remediation of existing content will be fairly onerous. 05:13:11 <rolandchan> Still, I think it needs to be done. 05:13:41 <rolandchan> I'd like to hear what the rest of the WG thinks before we take it outside the group. 05:14:21 <kavit> rolandchan, there was also talk of a Speaker's Bureau being created at the community track in Tokyo. idea was to provide a database of regular speakers to the UGs and various events 05:14:34 <kavit> we should circle back and co-ordinate with that group also 05:14:48 <rolandchan> yes, with respect to outreach. 05:15:00 <kavit> sorry yes, this would be under outreach 05:15:19 <rolandchan> anything else for onboarding? 05:15:43 <kavit> cant think of anything 05:15:59 <rolandchan> ok 05:16:08 <rolandchan> Code of Conduct update. 05:17:37 <kavit> dont have one 05:20:32 <rolandchan_> so, I'm happy to draft an email 05:20:47 <rolandchan_> and send it to the US team to review, update etc before they send it to jbryce 05:22:20 <rolandchan_> thats it for me. 05:23:11 <kavit> OK 05:23:23 <kavit> anyone else want to discuss anything? 05:24:20 <kavit> ok going to end the meeting 05:24:25 <kavit> #endmeeting
