Subject: Re: [Outreachy Announce] Outreachy: help spread the word and Twitter 
chats

Dear Outreachy community,

The #OutreachyChat times are upon us! Chats will take place tomorrow (March 1) 
at 4pm UTC / 11am EST and at 2am UTC (March 2) / 9pm EST (March 1). I'll be 
tweeting from @outreachy account and will pose the questions below with an 
interval of 5-10 minutes between questions. As you can see, they are prefaced 
with Q1, Q2, and so on, and correspondingly, you will need to reply with A1, 
A2, and so on in your answers. You will also need to use the hashtag 
#OutreachyChat in all your tweets related to the chat. Prospective applicants 
will be encouraged to ask follow-up questions, so you might find yourself in 
further discussions with them. The following questions are planned for the chat:

Q1: Please introduce yourself. Are you a mentor? Alum? Applicant? What project 
are you working on or looking into? #OutreachyChat
Q2: For mentors, tell us about your org's work, its structure, size? What is it 
like to participate in your community? #OutreachyChat
Q3: For alums, what did you gain as the result of Outreachy internship? 
#OutreachyChat
Q4: For mentors, what is the project you are mentoring? What skills does one 
need to have for it? What will they learn? #OutreachyChat
Q5: For alums, what is your advice for prospective applicants? #OutreachyChat
Q6: For mentors, what does an applicant need to do to make the first 
contribution to your project? #OutreachyChat

Please feel free to make suggestions for further improving these questions or 
adding new ones.

Because the goal of having two chats is to have them at two different times so 
that more people can participate, the same questions will used in both chats 
and if you are able to participate in both chats, you should provide 
(approximately) the same answers. 

Coordinators, please respond to questions addressed to mentors in the chat - 
after all, you are mentors too :). Also, please forward this e-mail to any 
mentors from your org new to Outreachy this round and encourage them to 
participate.

Looking forward to the chats tomorrow!

Marina

Subject: Outreachy: help spread the word and Twitter chats

Dear Outreachy community,

We have opened applications for the new round of the program and would love 
your help spreading the word. Please send the information to your university 
department or community group, share it on social networks, or encourage 
someone you know to apply. We have a sample e-mail and sample social network 
updates you can use available at 
https://wiki.gnome.org/Outreachy/2016/MayAugust/SpreadTheWord

Please join us for Twitter chats with #OutreachyChat hashtag at 4pm UTC on 
March 1 (11am EST) or at 2am UTC on March 2 (9pm EST on March 1). The goal of 
the chats is to increase the visibility of this opportunity and individual 
project ideas, and to encourage more people to apply. We will ask mentors to 
introduce their organizations and project ideas and past interns to share their 
advice and experience. Closer to the chat date, I will share with you the 
questions we'll have.

Thanks!
Marina
