| opendevmeet | Current chairs: fungi spotz | 14:02 |
| fungi | ohai | 14:03 |
| spotz | I don't think we'll have anyone else but lets give them 2 minutes | 14:03 |
| fungi | sure | 14:03 |
| spotz | Ok let's get going as we had a lot last time with these same topics | 14:06 |
| spotz | #topic Summit Planning | 14:06 |
| spotz | Were you able to get with Erin? | 14:06 |
| fungi | that was the one of two things i took on last meeting that i didn't get to yet, i think. but now i can't remember what the other one was | 14:07 |
| fungi | ahh, right, i did reach out about the survey topic, but not the summit yet. i need to finish putting that list together | 14:07 |
| spotz | Ok | 14:09 |
| fungi | i'll stuff the list into our agenda pad so it's a little mor concise | 14:09 |
| spotz | Ok is there anything we can work on for Summit ourselves in the meantime? I did put in for a BoF session, a 30 minute one as we could always move out into the hall after if needed | 14:11 |
| fungi | that sounds good. i don't know if there are specific topics anyone wants to present on (the cfp deadline has been quietly extended to next week so there's still time) | 14:12 |
| fungi | though also we can do forum sessions, those aren't decided until later | 14:12 |
| spotz | Yeah in the system it says April 21 I think but when I asked Erin yesterday if didn't seem like that would be a hard date | 14:13 |
| fungi | looks like we already put the summit recommendations in the agenda etherpad last meeting, so unless there are any more you can think of i'll stuff those into an e-mail this week | 14:14 |
| spotz | I was going to just reach out to Erin and Allison if they want Git and Gerrit run vs going through the CFP and taking up a slot that is usually run during lunch anyways | 14:14 |
| spotz | Yeah that looks good | 14:15 |
| spotz | I'm assuming most of that will be fairly easy easy being in Vanouver vs a longer haul | 14:20 |
| spotz | And once we truly get it as a routine our list will just be part of the larger checklist for events | 14:20 |
| fungi | yes, my goal was to have these suggestion over to them far enough in advance to be actionable | 14:21 |
| fungi | er, these suggestions | 14:21 |
| spotz | Yeah and some stuff might already be in process like the stickers. Comfort level I don't think we've done more then just Berlin | 14:24 |
| fungi | right, even if it's stuff they already planned to do, it's good to give them a reminder people are interested in continuing to do that | 14:25 |
| spotz | Yeah and I do think going through the CHAOSS badging is important as well, I think we actually do some of it like Diversity Tickets and travel support but it's not worded clearly. We just all 'know' | 14:26 |
| spotz | Ok anything else we need to discuss about Summit? | 14:33 |
| fungi | nope, i'll get this sent along | 14:34 |
| spotz | #topic 2023 D&I Survey | 14:36 |
| fungi | i did at least get around to sending an e-mail about this after the last meeting | 14:37 |
| spotz | Woohoo:) | 14:37 |
| spotz | Any reply? | 14:37 |
| fungi | i don't think i got a reply though, or did you see a reply i missed? if not i can ping | 14:37 |
| spotz | I didn't realize I was CC'ed let me look. | 14:38 |
| fungi | yeah, i cc'd you | 14:38 |
| fungi | sent on december 13 | 14:38 |
| fungi | Subject: Guidance on 2023 updates for Diversity Survey | 14:39 |
| spotz | No reply | 14:39 |
| fungi | aprice: did you get the e-mail i sent on december 13, guidance for updating the diversity survey for 2023? | 14:39 |
| spotz | It was right before most folks wen out on PTO | 14:39 |
| fungi | yeah, i figured | 14:39 |
| fungi | didn't see much point in hounding anyone for answers until now anyway ;) | 14:39 |
| fungi | i can follow up with her this week to see if she's had a chance to read it or whether it needs re-sending | 14:40 |
| spotz | Yeah. And I think we should include ildikov more in this to help get all the projects participating | 14:40 |
| fungi | agreed | 14:40 |
| ildikov | I’m around, but need to read back to respond properly :) | 14:41 |
| spotz | With her now in PDT we might need to bump this meeting back but we'll see | 14:41 |
| spotz | hehe | 14:41 |
| spotz | We were just getting started on the topic. Diversity Summit for 2023 nd making it work for all the projects AND them participating | 14:42 |
| fungi | if we want to push finalizing the survey changes to 2023, we could do a forum session to go through the current survey and proposed adjustments too | 14:42 |
| ildikov | Haha, no need to move just because of me, but appreciate the thought! | 14:42 |
| fungi | er, push finalizing the changes to q3 of 2023 i mean | 14:42 |
| spotz | So make it a 2024 survey? | 14:43 |
| fungi | well, that's the question. second half of 2023 anyway | 14:43 |
| spotz | I'm not against it but we need to make sure it's not going to just be us in the session | 14:43 |
| fungi | we could try to do it a lot sooner and then have a forum session about early responses i suppose, but that may be too early to have much feedback | 14:44 |
| fungi | mainly just trying to work out whether it makes sense to incorporate a forum session about the diversity survey one way or the other. timing is sort of terrible for either approach | 14:45 |
| ildikov | if we want a shorter timeline than asking for feedback sooner is better | 14:45 |
| spotz | No I don't mind doing a final review in Vancouver and if not much changed from it even releasing it in Vancouver | 14:45 |
| ildikov | the Forum session is not fully inclusive anyway, but would be a great way to speed things up | 14:45 |
| spotz | We could definitely use some hype of it being mentioned during the Keynotes | 14:46 |
| fungi | yeah, my take is that a forum session could get feedback from people we're generally unable to reach through mailing lists, but i don't know if that's really true | 14:46 |
| ildikov | spotz: if we want to release it in Vancouver then we could use the event to give more visibility to the survey, but it would need to be finalized before the event for that | 14:47 |
| ildikov | or just point to the effort and then release the new survey after the event to avoid it getting lost in all the other noise | 14:47 |
| spotz | Yeah and that's the issue, we don't have much to change questionwise probably for OpenStack, we don't know if the other projects need specific questions added beyond what project are you submitting for | 14:48 |
| fungi | right. even if we finalized the survey this month and started circulating it, i doubt we'd have enough responses to be able to draw conclusions in time to present mid-year. on the other hand, if we wait until then to get final feedback on the updates to the survey, that's a bigger delay than we really need | 14:48 |
| spotz | Here's a thought. We have a working session to finalize the survey, and an announcement during the keynotes about the session and the 'expected' start date? | 14:49 |
| fungi | and as ildikov points out, the third option is to finalize it by mid-year and plan to hype it at the event in order to hopefully drive more survey responses | 14:49 |
| ildikov | fungi: do you expect significantly more participation in editing if we give it more time and make it a target for 2023 H2 or even 2024? | 14:50 |
| fungi | ildikov: i don't really know | 14:50 |
| fungi | that's part of the problem | 14:50 |
| fungi | engagement is dismally low to nonexistent both in terms of helping us plan/produce the survey and in people taking the survey, historically | 14:50 |
| ildikov | I understand, it's hard to gauge | 14:50 |
| spotz | But if we want to expand beyond OpenStack which we really do need to we need some help from folks in the project. I'd settle for the Community Managers if we cant't get contributors | 14:51 |
| fungi | even the monthly d&i wg meetings are usually just me and spotz unless we ping somebody during the meeting who happens to already be in here ;) | 14:51 |
| ildikov | in that case, I would go with what spotz was suggesting as well, to hype up the survey at the event | 14:52 |
| fungi | wfm | 14:52 |
| ildikov | we can have an email campaign to the project MLs for input and review | 14:52 |
| ildikov | and 2 working sessions for people who want to talk about it | 14:52 |
| ildikov | I think the risk of not having enough participants even with the extended timeline is higher than not having a useful survey | 14:54 |
| spotz | Ok I'll get a forum session in I'm not sure I can get 2 in, though if there was room we could add it. We also need to be weary of PTG conflicts | 14:55 |
| ildikov | if we have a version we can hype up during the Summit that'll give us more eyes and if people are unhappy with the survey after all, then they might be more motivated at that time to chime in and provide feedback | 14:55 |
| ildikov | spotz: oh, I meant two working sessions prior to the event to get the survey done by the Summit | 14:56 |
| spotz | Ah:) | 14:56 |
| ildikov | I might've misunderstood the working session's purpose | 14:56 |
| spotz | Well the working session'forum' is to get folks in the room to discuss and finalize. It'd be really cool if it was about ready to release at the time | 14:57 |
| ildikov | we could still have one Forum session for awareness and some rapid feedback | 14:57 |
| spotz | Then we'd know we could say look out in your email boxes the first week of July for the Diversity Survey or some such during keynotes | 14:57 |
| ildikov | If we could get it ready by the Summit that would be beneficial | 14:57 |
| ildikov | easier to hype people into filling it out, IMHO | 14:58 |
| spotz | Yeah | 14:58 |
| spotz | I know my first User Survey I did in Barcelona for a t-shirt:) | 14:58 |
| ildikov | haha, there you go :) | 14:58 |
| fungi | yeah, so is it two ad hoc working sessions scheduled between now and the summit to get project feedback, with a goal of finalizing the survey in time to promote it at the summit? or forum sessions to finalize the survey at the summit? | 14:59 |
| spotz | Ok so our plan is to get Ildiko and team's help to have 2-3 working meetings to get the survey done or almost done by summit, announce during keynotes, and maybe a final session in Forums or something and release shortly after summit? | 15:00 |
| fungi | sounds good, we still have time to refine that plan too | 15:00 |
| fungi | and i'll try to get feedback from aprice on the questions i sent last month | 15:00 |
| spotz | I don't think it's a good idea to hand folks out a D&I survey submittal t-shirt if they did the survey there no matter what. But maybe we could give out some small D&I item at the check in? | 15:01 |
| fungi | we'd need to decide what, and probably find a sponsor to provide them | 15:03 |
| spotz | Ok nix that idea I'd rather get the lunch or speed emntoring sponsored | 15:04 |
| fungi | yeah, prioritizing such things is tough | 15:05 |
| fungi | if the summit organizers are planning to do a sticker sheet as general swag, we might inquire about getting something diversity-related included, assuming there's room and the design work could be finished soon enough | 15:06 |
| spotz | Sounds good | 15:07 |
| fungi | i've tacked that onto the summit recommendations list from last meeting so i'll include it in the message i send to erin | 15:09 |
| spotz | Thanks! | 15:09 |
| spotz | Anything else for the meeting? We' 10 minutes over | 15:09 |
| fungi | i've got nothing else | 15:10 |
| spotz | Ok ildikov can you check with your team about participating or finding folks in their projects? Then they can be invited to this meeting or if needed we find another day and time | 15:11 |
| ildikov | spotz: will do! | 15:11 |
| spotz | Great meeting! Thanks for coming! | 15:12 |
