Notes
- Discussion of edits to the survey that Karen has done since the last meeting. Ideas were raised on ways to combine questions to reduce overall number of questions and discussed how we were looking for input on people's experiences vs. their values. Also discussed which tool we would use to create survey and if it would require the use of a Linux Foundation ID or not. Also discussed when to take this to the TSC and how to promote this out when it is ready.
- Action Item: Karen to take another pass at survey based on discussion
- Action item: Add agenda item to future call about defining the promotion plan for survey when it is ready
- Action item: After Karen has made the edits, Swetha will send to the TSC mailing list and request adding it to a call agenda
- Discussion around blog post. It seems solid but there is still time to edit.
- Action item: If anyone has feedback, please comment in the doc
- Discussion of how group can participate in Global Forum in March. We should use this opportunity to discuss the group and recruit people into it at the Diversity reception. Are there interactive ways to capture data at the event, such as having an interactive wall board (example) where people can add information that helps us identify different aspects of diversity, such as which time zones people are from. We could also do a mentoring/1:1 experience such as the Ambassador effort we did at last HGF. And do we want to submit something to the CFP about running inclusive meetings.
- Action item: David to start a thread on the list about interactive activities at HGF
- Action item: Swetha to draft a CFP submission and we'll discuss on the list
- Action item: Swetha to start a thread on the list about recommendations we could make to the HGF planning committee
- Discussion of chair election process
- Working Group Process: Working Group Process
- SIG process for reference SIG Process - Launch & Operations
- Action item: We propose that when we are ready to start the process, Dan can call for nominations on the group's list. If there is more than one nomination we would then set up a vote
