Hi All, Based on https://github.com/rbowen/comdev-working-groups/tree/main/wg-sharpeners#readme
I read: - volunteers who come alongside a PMC to offer an outsider's perspective on the project, and advice to build their community. - subscribe to the project's mailing lists and mostly listen - do not have any authority over the PMC - All feedback must be a polite, positive, actionable suggestion, not merely a criticism or a "you're doing it wrong." You must suggest what the community should do, providing links to policy or best practice documents where applicable. Simply criticising is not welcome. All of this sounds to me like an advisory role where advisory is "having or consisting in the power to make recommendations but not to take action enforcing them."[1] So I'd go with "PMC Advisor". It's not cute or clever, it's even bland, but I understand it, ;-) Gary [1] https://www.google.com/search?q=define+advisory On Sun, Feb 18, 2024 at 4:08 PM Rich Bowen <rbo...@rcbowen.com> wrote: > > > > > On Feb 18, 2024, at 10:02 AM, Gary Gregory <garydgreg...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > I've never heard of someone being called a "sharpener"; I've used a > > knife sharpener and a pencil sharpener ;-) ... it feels like a stretch > > here. > > > > In general, I prefer names that simply describe intent instead of > > cuteness/cleverness, especially in an international context where I > > find it beneficial to use words that make sense if you have to look > > them up. > > Cool.
