I will contact them by this weekend. 18:04 #action Cheri703 to contact potential Career Days participants 18:04 * meetingology Cheri703 to contact potential Career Days participants 18:04 thanks :) 18:04 Cheri703: you again, Competition news? :) 18:05 I added some more questions to our private questions key, so I think we have enough 18:05 questions are finally sorted! so next step is creating the form for submission 18:05 then choosing a start date and advertising the heck out of it 18:05 I'm thinking Monday 18:06 that will give us the weekend to get the form sorted and blog posts prepped 18:06 do we want to advertise in advance of start date or? 18:06 not sure, we also have the survey going out this week (we'll get to that in a moment) 18:07 maybe we send out a teaser tweet/fb/g+ on Friday? 18:07 I think it is better to have everything in place before advertising, just in case of any snags 18:08 #link http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/Events/Competitions/ScavengerHunt 18:08 that will also need to be reviewed and updated as needed with dates 18:10 agree with IdleOne 18:10 (sorry, someone came to the door) 18:10 Original thought had been to start it on like a friday and then run til a monday, so 2 weekends in the contest time frame 18:10 so if we start posting about it monday, then we could start it next friday? 18:11 sure 18:11 and that gives us the rest of this week/most of next to get it finalized/ready 18:11 that will also give us nice spacing between survey announcement and competition 18:11 yeah 18:12 #action pleia2 to update ScavengerHunt wiki 18:12 * meetingology pleia2 to update ScavengerHunt wiki 18:12 Cheri703: want to write the announcement blog post? 18:12 #action pleia2 to advertise competition on social media 18:12 * meetingology pleia2 to advertise competition on social media 18:13 uhm...I can 18:13 #action Cheri703 to write blog post announcing the competition 18:13 * meetingology Cheri703 to write blog post announcing the competition 18:14 I can proof read/help as needed :) 18:14 ok cool 18:14 ok, survey! 18:15 so I worked with AlanBell to come up with survey questions, and the survey is now up :) http://goo.gl/CXem63 18:15 pretty basic, I figure we can refine in follow-up surveys as needed 18:15 this is our first survey so I wanted it to be pretty broad and general 18:16 I haven't shared the link yet, so this is the debut, if anyone has any comments or changes they wish to see, now's your chance :) 18:18 good, bad, indifferent? :) 18:18 good! :) 18:19 looks good here 18:19 ok cool 18:19 looks like that's it for blueprint items 18:20 #topic Tips on how to get involved with the various skills that each of us have, either in the community of Ubuntu/Ubuntu-Women/FOSS or in the IT field with FOSS being the focus, and how does the non-FOSS IT world sees the FOSS world in IT field 18:20 looks like belkinsa isn't here 18:20 but what I gathered from the thread that inspired this topic is that our "how to get involved" resources aren't obvious enough on our site 18:21 it's true, http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/ needs some work 18:22 so I'm thinking I'll follow-up on list and suggest they schedule a meeting specificially to talk about this and see what we can do to improve it :) 18:22 maybe move the link up just under the About link? 18:22 your idea is better I think :) 18:22 IdleOne: I think it's more involved than that and we'll find that even our getting involved page, once found, is not sufficient 18:23 it's kind of "here are some links, have fun!" 18:23 #action pleia2 to follow up on list with improvements for getting involved & what people are doing docs 18:23 * meetingology pleia2 to follow up on list with improvements for getting involved & what people are doing docs 18:24 #topic Any other business (AOB) 18:24 well it is a wiki, everybody is welcome to improve it :) 18:24 err maybe not 18:24 IdleOne: only admins can edit the front page 18:24 (we've had vandalism) 18:24 yeah just remembered that 18:25 and the folks asking for improvements are the ones who are trying to get involved, so they can't really rewrite it ;) 18:25 feedback from them is essential though 18:26 indeed 18:26 ok, so any other things folks wish to discuss? 18:26 nope :) 18:28 I'm good 18:31 ok, thanks everyone! 18:31 #endmeeting Generated by MeetBot 0.1.5 (http://wiki.ubuntu.com/meetingology)
