So, July came and went by, and we are now in November.

I won't be surprised if pippin's interview doesn't get published any
time soon. It is part of a series of interviews with GIMP contributors
that Jehan organized at WilberWeek. However given his recent hardware
woes [1], he might not be able to get to publishing the rest of those
soon. I haven't even seen him in #gimp for a while.

Given this reality, can we put something up on our end in the near
future?

I'll be happy to be the secondary contact. I'm planning to sort out
t-shirts and hoodies as usual. Bastian, are you still ok to take care

​I couldn't get in touch with vendors yet here at my place, as it is Diwali
time and business is mostly closed. Things should be better next week as
they open up.
Although I have looked up a famous online place which use to such things
like printing visiting cards, banners, stickers etc. You can upload your
own designs there.
So I maybe try to give it a shot first before finalizing my word on the
quality of their work. Other than that, I will be visiting offline shops
too and try to get details and their sample probably.

[Engagement] Relaying out bug fixes news via social media

2017-11-03 Thread Umang Jain
Hi there,

We have come up with an idea in the area of social media outreach and
it would be glad if you can share your views on it. The idea is to
relay news out in the social media whenever any bug/issue is fixed via
dedicated GNOME Bugs' Social Media Channels (thereafter referred as
SMC).

GNOME Bugs' SMC are not created yet and will be separate from main
GNOME handles. You can take a look at LibreOffice's bug channel [1].

Although, based on the severity of the bug/issue, the main GNOME
handle can retweet/relay the link on it's own account. The idea is to
keep a separate bug SMC is:

* Not to make main GNOME handle very noisy
* To have automated GNOME bugs SMC

I think that most of us agree that social media is the fastest way to
get information out. Therefore, as far as code development is
concerned, it takes a while till the information is actually relayed
out. Mostly, until someone blogs about it and then pick up by other
blogs and so on..

We can get fast here and be more verbose about the work that goes into
everyday. In addition to that, we want it to be automated; similar to
[1]

Now comes the most interesting part. It would be really great if we
can mention "Newcomers" and their internet handle in the bug SMC link;
That should really make them feel special as they can show to the
world that they have done something great and brag! Again making that
automated would require some thought in organizing that kind of
process so Carlos Soriano would give better perspective. But all in
all, this stuff is great for newcomers engagement and outreach.

This discussion actually happened in Telegram "GNOME Engagement"
channel this evening. So, it would be great if you can share your
views/consensus here.

Hey,


I love the idea! If there are graphical attachments (fx mockups) on a 
bug, it might also be interesting to attach those too in the automated 
message to create some visual interest.

testing a new process for social media

2017-11-03 Thread Sriram Ramkrishna
Carlos Soriano was kind enough to create
http://gitab.gnome.org/GNOME/engagement, and so you can now create issues
for things like we want to advertise.  As a test, I have put in November
Bug Squash Month - https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/engagement/issues/1.

This way we have some way to track the things that need to be done and
close them out easily when complete.
