Hiya,
It'll be nice if we (the freemedia team) could generate some metrics on a monthly basis. Just opening this ticket up here as a tracking ticket. I brought it up on the freemedia list already, and a few people do seem to be interested in working on it. We can use this ticket for discussion and updates.

This issue is a stub for working out ideas, concepts, and other steps involved for contributors who would like to officially join the DotNet team.
## Problem
The goal of the dotnet SIG is to establish dotnet presence in Fedora, from providing information to the user, through taking care of dotnet packages in future Fedora releases, to providing information and help to other packagers.
## Current state
Basic [wiki page[1]](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DotNet) was drafted, [mailing list[3]](https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/dotnet-sig.lists.fedor… and [FAS group[4]](https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/group/view/dotnet-sig) created, and we are currently looking for a good [time](http://whenisgood.net/fedora-dotnet) for IRC [meetings](https://pagure.io/fedora-dotnet/issue/1). During the first IRC meeting we should discuss the future goals and next steps of our progress ([agenda](https://pagure.io/fedora-dotnet/issue/2))
## Questions & Ideas
* **Wiki page** - Everything is currently at [wiki/dotnet[1]](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DotNet) while I would like _this_ page to contain general info about dotnet on Fedora, info for the user and packagers how to use dotnet, etc... and to move the organizational part about the team and joining it to [wiki/SIGs/dotnet[2]](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/DotNet)
* **FAS Group & Mailing List** - I'm not entirely sure about this, what would it ideally look like in the future, however for now there is no reason to do anything and we can keep it as it is with a single group and list. The idea for the future is, that if dotnet becomes popular and the group would grow, we should split off the core team and create new fas group and mailing list `dotnet-devel` or something along those lines, while the SIG would remain generic and public group of people with common interest.
* **What next?** (technical side) - This should be answered during the first (above mentioned) IRC meeting, it should go along the lines of getting all the current problems together (pagure issues) and starting to look into them one by one - we should come up with priorities, etc... Next steps in organization of the group are already outlined and questions are raised in the above points.

Should the commblog put together an editorial calendar/timeline?
This would be a place to track things like:
o When we expect to see release announcements, supplemental wall paper, elections, etc.
o When we want to boost Fedora's presence at conference like FOSDEM, etc.
o Standing columns and ideas

We've seen that while wcidff works well, it works well for people looking for tasks to work on, which isn't necessarily the same as people looking to join the project, at least not to begin with.
We'd like to see how wcidff can be improved

- communicate the 'campaign' process (ie., interview on commops, etc)
* use the same tool as the election tool or automate the creation of the ballot to avoid FAS name errors

Perhaps CommOps should try to figure out what Fedora related and Fedora Contributor given talks are at FOSDEM and publish a "checklist to FOSDEM" article?

A recurring column for folks looking for contributor help (could run in magazine if better fit).
Describe the project and the specific help you want. What level of help? Can you mentor, etc.
These should be small blurbs and could possible be in a roundup format.

As some of you may know, every year Google hosts the Google Summer of
Code (GSoC), last year we participated with some decent results for a
few projects. I was just sending this heads up to those whom may be
interested in partaking as a mentor or student (even if you are already
a fedora contributor) for a project within Fedora.
Basic requirements for students and ideas are below and find the full
lowdown at [0].
What are the eligibility requirements for participation?
* You must be at least 18 years of age
* You must currently be a full or part-time student (or have been
accepted for the fall term) at an accredited university as of the
student acceptance date
* You must be eligible to work in the country you will reside in during
the program
* You have not already been accepted as a Student in GSoC more than once
* You must reside in a country that is not currently embargoed by the
United States. See Program Rules for more information.
Prospective students: read the Student Manual [1]
Prospective Mentors: read the Mentors Manual [2]

Hi there,
mleonova and myself have written a blog post together to help promote work
on badges. Please review and let me know if I need to do anything to
improve it. If there are small changes needed, feel free to make those and
publish. Here is the link:
