Congrats on being elected to the TC, Colleen! You mentioned earlier in this thread that, "a major problem in the tech world is not just attracting underrepresented contributors, but retaining them". I'm curious if the TC has considered polling the people that have left OpenStack for their

/me waves Thanks a bunch for replying to my email. As some of you may know, this is a topic that is very close to me and I that I pay lots of attention to. There's some overlap in some of your replies and I've taken notes offline so we can work together on some of them (although I'd love to see

Re: [openstack-dev] [tc][election] Question for candidates: How do you think we can make our community more inclusive?

FeiLong, Thanks for raising the pain points as a non-English native speaker. I had similar experience with you in last 5 years. Language, timezone, culture are the common barriers for diversity and inclusiveness. We could identify what's the biggest obstacles for contributors to contribute

Re: [openstack-dev] [tc][election] Question for candidates: How do you think we can make our community more inclusive?

Thanks for asking, Flavio. That's one of the topic I mentioned in my candidacy, that's because as a Chinese working on OpenStack in the past 6 years, I do have some experiences about this though I agree it couldn't be done in 1 cycle/year. But I think it's still a domain I can contribute for

Re: [openstack-dev] [tc][election] Question for candidates: How do you think we can make our community more inclusive?

Flavio, Some months back I looked at a slide that Thierry showed at a meeting; it showed contributor statistics and it showed that there were a large number of contributors who made exactly 1 commit which sometimes got merged, but there was a huge drop off from 1 commit to 2 commits! So I got to

Re: [openstack-dev] [tc][election] Question for candidates: How do you think we can make our community more inclusive?

Greetings Flavio, My perception is that if we need to encourage the spreading of task, roles, responsibility amongst many. In other words, encourage building trust. Building trust should hopefully foster a personal sense of investment and responsibility, hopefully resulting in further diversity

Re: [openstack-dev] [tc][election] Question for candidates: How do you think we can make our community more inclusive?

Hi Flavio, I would like to refer to another thread about areas the TC should be more active in raised by Ed Leafe where trust and mentorship were brought up by a few of us. I think one of the key factors of being open and inclusive is to help and mentor new contributors/community members

[openstack-dev] [tc][election] Question for candidates: How do you think we can make our community more inclusive?

Greetings, Some of you, TC candidates, expressed concerns about diversity and inclusiveness (or inclusivity, depending on your taste) in your candidacy. I believe this is a broad, and some times ill-used, topic so, I'd like to know, from y'all, how you think we could make our community more
