This evening I attended the TAC concall to explore how ComDev could
work with TAC. Here are my notes from the call (I've ommitted the TAC
specific stuf since I was there to represent ComDev)
Cross-publicise
We need to work with Sally to create a marketing plan
Not clear if this would be a single effort or two
separate efforts
Each targeting slightly different groups
TAC - people ready to be a part of the community
Comdev - people who don't know how ASF works
Include mentee status in evaluation?
It was generally agreed that we could "hand off" to TAC so
they can "finish the job" and bring them into the ASF
ComDev should actively encourage mentees to apply for TAC as part of
the programme
TAC will consult with ComDev (and hence mentors) about the
suitability of the candidate
Include mentor status in evaluation?
It was felt that we can work something out where successful mentors
would be credited as such within the TAC application process
ComDev should actively encourage mentors to apply to TAC as this will
help TAC reach out to the right people
TAC will consult with ComDev (and hence mentees) about the
suitability of the candidate
