Staffing CentOS booth at Red Hat Summit
by Rich Bowen 22 Apr '21

22 Apr '21

If you are interested in staffing the CentOS booth at the upcoming Red Hat Summit, please let me know. Details: Dates: April 27, 28 More info on event: https://www.redhat.com/en/summit/about#virtual-april Expectations: We'd need someone who can answer questions about the CentOS project, and/or CentOS Linux and/or CentOS Stream. The event is online, so this means being in a chat channel, on the Summit platform, for a specified time. Currently we have some Asia-centric time slots that are completely unstaffed, but almost any time we can use the extra help. Thanks!

March newsletter: Help requested
by Rich Bowen 22 Feb '21

22 Feb '21

Hi, folks, I have started drafting the March newsletter, and I recognize that I have not adequately included this group in that process over the past year. If you are interested in participating in the writing of the monthly newsletter, please speak up, or, better yet, submit something. I'm not asking anyone to take the whole thing, but if there is a section of the newsletter that you'd like to contribute to, please step in and do it. Useful info about what we're looking for: Past newsletters: https://wiki.centos.org/Newsletter An amazing example from Rocky, who have raised the bar a bit here: https://forums.rockylinux.org/t/community-update-february-2021/1934 I will be drafting the newsletter in blogs.centos.org and so if you'd like to participate, having an account there is useful. See https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/Promo/Blog for details about posting to the CentOS blog. Note that we do this every month, starting approximately one week before the end of the month. I will strive to remember to post here each time. --Rich

Promo SIG, status check
by Rich Bowen 24 Jan '21

24 Jan '21

This mailing list has not had a message since May 2020. And there were only 2 messages in 2020 that were not from me. I'm curious if there's anybody still here, and if you're still interested in participating. With the recent attempt to figure out what SIGs are still alive, I have to look at this SIG also, which isn't operating like a SIG. We do not have regular IRC meetings, we don't discuss our activities as a group, and what we do, we pretty much do independently. I do my activities without reference to anyone else, and I don't report on them to anyone. Would anyone be here to read those reports were I to send them? Would any of you attend a monthly IRC meeting if I had one? Are there any promo activities that we could be engaging in, which we are not? Is there anyone who wishes to volunteer for those activities? --Rich

CentOS Dojo playbooks
by Rich Bowen 25 Feb '20

25 Feb '20

TL;DR: I'm working on a Dojo playbook at https://wiki.centos.org/Events/Dojo/Organizing The Dojo planning process has been a bit hidden for the last few years, and I'd like to make it more public, for two main reasons. One, transparency is important, and the community should know what I'm doing for you, and have some input into how I spend my time, to ensure it's actually beneficial to you. Two, I want your help. I want volunteers to step up to do Dojos, and as Aman alluded to in his email, people get intimidated with the size of things, and don't know where to step in to help. Having a detailed playbook gives people a way that they can step up and help with a small part of the process, or do their own event, once they can see exactly what's in volved. So ... if you have insight into event planning, please do help with this documentation project. Thanks. -- Rich Bowen - rbowen(a)redhat.com @CentOSProject // @rbowen 859 351 9166
