Engagement Team Meeting 16 September 2016

AGENDA

Need handout with GNOME info for Install Fest
Carlos might give a speech on campus at UPB
Ubuntu vs. Fedora (sounds like Ubuntu is the best option for now since people already use it)

@Razvan Email Nurizi with ideas for text for handout (e.g. links to facebook group, wiki, gnome.org, etc.)
@Razvan, Rares Determine t-shirt costs, quantity, and sizes, email Nuritzi to request budget
@Razvan, Rares Look for sticker vendors, also send email to request budget
@Razvan, Rares Join Engagement mailing list (or go to #sysadmin to get set up)
@Razvan, Rares File a sysadmin bugzilla to request mailing list

Need to talk to core developers about extensions/implementing extension functionality (ex. GNOME weather w/ weather indicator)
Get the design team to give guidelines for extension developers
Give "do's" and "don'ts" since currently there isn't enough information on how to support extensions (esp. common use cases like indicators, status-menu-panels)
Create a wiki page for extensions and extension community stuff
Currently it's hard to find information about it or about how to get in contact
Ask Bastian and Carlos where it makes sense to have this wiki since it can be used to get newcomers
Extensions are an easy way to get into shell programming
Want people to follow our guidelines as a helping hand and to encourage best practices
Would be nice to establish a mailing list for extensions #gnome-shell
Mario will be more involved mid-october / early november

@Mario request a mailing list by filing a sysadmin bugzilla
Create a wiki
Add information to newcomers page
@Razvan Ask Carlos where extensions should be posted on newcomer page or if he has any ideas for how to get people interested in extensions.
