Re: Gamifying user lists

[Christopher]

Fedora has "Badges"[1][2] you can earn for various levels of participation,
performing reviews, building a package, committing a bugfix, testing, etc.
You even earn silly badges for making mistakes... like pushing a change
which breaks a build. Contributors can propose new badges. It all ties into
a centralized notification system, and you can track where you are compared
to others on how many badges you've earned.

Something like that would really have to be ASF-wide, rather than
project-specific, but projects could create their own custom badges, based
on contributions to their project. ASF-wide badges could be for
participation in multiple projects, and special badges could be for serving
on the board, or chairing a project, mentoring GSoC, hosting a hackathon or
key signing party, presenting at ApacheCon, etc. The number of badges could
be very small to start (becoming a committer, committer on multiple
projects, etc.) and could grow over time.

CouchDB tried AdvocateHub for a while. It's not the best solution but
it is something like what you're asking for.

Gamifying user lists

[Denis Magda]

Dear Apache Foundation members,

Writing to you in hope to get an advice or to learn more from your experience.

As a member of Apache Ignite community I see that a number of questions posted 
to Ignite's user list steadily grows. This is exciting, for sure. However, it’s 
not that easy to encourage experienced and active contributors/committers to 
keep scanning the questions replying in reasonable amount of time. As a result, 
majority of the questions are either answered by a specific group of people or 
left unanswered for a while.

Has any of you tried to apply gamification techniques for user lists of your 
Apache community? I’m looking for a platform/tool that can be easily integrated 
with the user list enriching the latter with ranking charts, most responsive 
contributors charts, etc. All the communication must keep going on the user 
list while a tool should gamify the list in background.

ApacheCon NA and Big Data dates

[Christopher]

Can anybody tell me what the dates are for ApacheCon NA and Apache: Big
Data?
Last time I looked, it seemed these were co-located back-to-back
conferences at the same venue.
However, now they both show May 16-18.

http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/apachecon-north-america
http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/apache-big-data-north-america

What are the correct dates? And, for the purposes of traveling, does
anybody know if there's going to be any evening-before or day-after events
planned?

Thanks.

Re: Draft ComDev Board Report - February 2017

[Rich Bowen]

Looks good to me. I have added a reference to the draft documentation
that I started stubbing in yesterday -
http://community.staging.apache.org/about/ - based on our onlist
discussion of what we do in ComDev, and with considerable help from
Sally. I intend to continue to flesh that out over the coming weeks, but
would, of course, appreciate input and help from the entire community.

This looks great! Thanks for the work, Sharan.
I'll see if I have anything to add.
