All,
I was attempting to explain an idea on channels for the program and was
hoping to see if there is even interest (or enough to warrant the effort).
There is currently #fedora-apps, #fedora-hubs, #fedora-commops,
#fedora-atomic, #fedora-summer-coding and #fedora-gsocmentors,
However, I know some coders prefer to have a semi private cross
collaboration means with fellow participants ( away from the public eye
(those not in the summer coding program, and / or mentors). I was
thinking there could be a #fedora-gsocstudents or similar where only
those with proposals (later only those accepted) are able to use as a
talk-around with only other students.
And sadly it looks like interest in the respective projects will be over
what we are awarded for slots :(, and I remember several students
indicating desire to work (or at least apply for several and take which
ever one they are deemed best for) the above proposal would leave a
space for those folks to still brainstorm but not necessarily be in a
active role OR talk with fellow mentees in their accepted project but
also have a 'break-out' channel where only those involved are allowed
to be. Leaving -summer-coding as a community channel for those looking
to see what things are like / about or wishing to brainstorm or ask
about pull requests form a purely community sense. We possibly could
even use -summer-coding post acceptance period as a #fedora-fedmsg
style channel for near real-time updates for the community or those
looking to just take a 'glimpse' or catch up on what is planned / did
happen at a meeting they may have missed or may miss.
Open to ideas, comments, adjustments and /or flat out denials.
