Notes
GitLab subscription for SWAG requests per Kat's email
We might want to require SWAG centers to subscribe to the GitLab label for SWAG
ACTION: Carlos and Nuritzi to subscribe: https://gitlab.gnome.org/Community/Engagement/General/labels
Stickers
- Recruit visual designers for stickers on social media
Hex sticker spec: https://github.com/terinjokes/StickerConstructorSpec
- Provide source image files from previous stickers
ACTION: Nuritzi & Michael to create issues for the hex stickers and ping Sri when done. Add a newcomer friendly tag?
ACTION: Sri helps promote
ACTION: Michael to look into Buffer for easing cross-posting to multiple networks
Event report template for participants
Example of Ubuntu Community Donations Fund reports: https://community.ubuntu.com/t/community-donation-reports/30
- We can publish this on the wiki
- Promote on social media, and / or Planet GNOME
- Consider doing these quarterly
Targeted events pages are supposed to be templates (example): https://wiki.gnome.org/Engagement/TargetedEvents/2017/SCALE15X
- In the past we used foundation-list to announce events and conferences we were attending, speaking, etc
- We need to plan for events better
ACTION: Let's explore migrating the targeted events pages to GitLab @Sri, Nuritzi
ACTION: @Nuritzi and @Sri to trial this with SCALE 16x
Release planning
- Is there someone else who can write release notes?
- @Sri would love to send ISOs to reporters a week in advance to get reviews and write articles on the releases. Could be something for the future.
- There's a concern about the ISOs being based on a particular distro
- We may not need a live image, sometimes there aren't features that people really want to try
- We have release notes and screenshots -- we can send those to press
- This should be done by about March 5th
ACTION: need to find press contacts and send the release notes and screenshots to press, @Nuritzi and Sri to find the list of press contacts
ACTION: need to set up a social media plan for release marketing
Social Media Accounts and Passwords
the GNOME alias on Twitter is registered to an alias (microblogs@gnome.org) that forwards to Allan's email
- Allan used to have the password for this
- We should have an email that is managed by the sysadmins
- There's a page where we used to keep track of who has access to all of the accounts. We need to find and update it.
ACTION: Nuritzi file a bug to create an alias for engagement team stuff like Stickermule
ACTION: Sri to change the Mastadon account to the engagement alias
ACTION: File a bug for @Rosanna and @Sri to be added to the microblogs email alias so that they have Twitter password
ACTION: Find the page that has all the account info and which aliases exist + who has access to them. Need to update the page. (Ask Rosanna about it)
