Faces of GNOME
- Potential GSoC student project
- many steps left still but could be finished this year
- Caroline needs to review design
- Content needs to be reviewed and rewritten for some sections
Changes should be requested as GitLab issues
- New name ideas so the acronym doesn't conflict with Friends of GNOME: "People of GNOME"
- Website could be people.gnome.org but that url currently redirects to a wiki about membership - need to review wiki and update
- Engagement Team can help with reviewing the website and submitting issues for changes (review images, find new ones, review content, rewrite, review layout/arrangement)
- Need to establish how people will request to be removed from the page and how people will be added (this may be a form, a merge request, or an issue)
Rosanna suggests Claudio talk to the membership committee since there is overlap in some of this information and they could work together to streamline both projects
Action items
Rename page to "People of GNOME"
- Research a way to add/remove profiles
- Check design, layout, and content of the page
@Claudio to talk with membership committee about streamline processes
- Create terms of use and guidelines for page use (who can request a profile, what can be added and what cannot)
- Share initiative on discourse for look for additional contributors
Additional Projects and Notes
@Kristi is working on sorting through the chat platform issue and talking with Neil and the Board
