Notes
Celebrating newcomers first contribution
- Can people opt out if they don't want their name on the internet? How can we protect privacy?
- It's the maintainter's responsibility to tag or not tag issues with the label we use in order to protect privacy
- If the newcomer has a twitter handle, they can mention their twitter handle. If they don't have a handle, then they can provide a name they want recognized (maybe their username), and then
- Maintainer of the project can comment on the issue and tag the issue with a label, and then the Engagement team would need to take that and create a tweet
- How often do newcomers contribute?
- When Google Summer of Code is approaching, there are a lot of newcomers.
- Proposed workflow: newcomer contributes, maintainer thanks them and asks them for twitter handle, newcomer provides any info they are able to by commenting in the issue, and the maintainer can add the label we use and tag the Engagement team member
- We should use the official GNOME account
- It would be awesome to have an image to send out with the tweet
ACTION: @Rosanna to give @Anna tweetdeck access to our official. https://tweetdeck.twitter.com/
ACTION: @Anna can help with social media. @Anna to send twitter handle info to @Rosanna via GNOME Engagement Telegram group
ACTION: @Nuritzi to add @Anna to Facebook accounts
ACTION: Update issue on GitLab, subscribe @Anna to it, @Carlos to create a label for maintainers to use ("newcomer tweet"), Send email to desktop developers list, engagement list
ACTION: Come up with the tweet wording and the image request so we can ask @Shirley to create an image for it and so that @Anna has a template that she can use
