Agenda / Notes
Updates
Working Group Draft Goals Update
Jinal and Pete proposed new draft for WG responsibilities and goals
- ACTION: CWG members to review and feed back in April [All]
Document joining process
Tobias finished first draft and shared for review
Discussion:
- What info do we expect from someone who wants to join? Potentially a form that provides some structure could help? What would be criteria?
- No-one has been rejected yet - checking affiliations is there to make sure that no one ‘group’ has majority voice within the WG
- Do people have to state what they want to do? Or, can people turn up to pitch in where needed? Self-direction important, but also flagging ‘beginner’ projects for people to cut their teeth on… People also don’t necessarily want to work ongoing - more task based - good to facilitate these people…
Actions:
- ACTION: propose Questions to be answered for new members… JOIN US section? [Pete]
- ACTION: Onboarding-related - beginner tasks / volunteering opportunities [Rory]
