During the last six months Community Outreach Revamp Objective co-leads Mariana Balla and Sumantro Mukherjee, with the support of Marie Nordin, have been working on documentation. With valuable help from the community, new documentation has been created and outdated documentation has been revised. Most of this documentation has landed on the CommOps docs page. The updated documentation is still a work in progress and the Revamp team plans to wrap this up in the upcoming months with feedback from Ambassadors and folks who are interested in outreach. The Revamp team has put many hours and a lot of love into the Community Outreach Revamp, and we are excited to see this initiative move to the next step! With the first draft of documentation in place, we would like to invite the following folks to join us for a monthly call: Ambassadors Advocates CommOps Team Members Join SIG Team Members Any Fedora community member interested in outreach

The Fedora Ambassadors and other folks interested in outreach met for a one hour call last Thursday, March 31st. We recorded the call and uploaded it to YouTube. The upload is left as unlisted as the quality came out less than ideal, but you can provide the link to anyone to view. We have set up another meeting for Thursday, April 28th at 3PM UTC and a whenisgood to set a permanent time and cadence for the meetings. If you are interested, please fill out the whenisgood by April 27th. We reviewed three main topics during the call: Documentation updates from the Community Outreach Revamp team How we want to set up recurring Ambassador meetings Ways to get involved The Community Outreach Revamp team has been working for almost two years to complete an update to Fedora's outreach related teams. Part of those efforts was to update the CommOps Docs to be a well indexed set of resources for all outreach related work in Fedora. We welcome people to come review and make improvements to the docs.

It has been almost a year since the Fedora Community Outreach Revamp started, and some pretty nice events have occurred since the last Revamp update. Now that the Trello board with the Revamp’s tasks and notes has been retired, all the Revamp notes are publically available on a HackMD file. In the past months, the Revamp team has worked on: With the experience we gained from conducting our community outreach survey in December 2020, we were asked to give our input on the list of questions the Fedora Council was preparing for the annual Contributor Engagement Survey. Now, the survey is public for the Fedora contributors to fill out and will be until June 30th 2021. Additionally, while having Marie Nordin the FCAIC help us out and support the Outreach Revamp, we gave our input on the organizational chart she prepared in order to visualize the Fedora Community’s organizational structure. A place where ambassadors’ related topics are discussed is the Mindshare repository on Pagure. A few weeks ago, the Community Outreach Revamp team started going through the open tickets there that are within the scope of this initiative and clean up those tickets. Tickets were either closed because they had been already resolved or commented with a proposed solution on the ticket’s topic. The Fedora Project has been part of many mentorship programs for years now, and one of the most popular programs Fedora has been part of is Outreachy. Among the 3 interns that will be working for the summer cohort of 2021 in Fedora projects, we have one intern help us visualize our progress withing the Revamp. We will have Dhairya Chaudhary working on creating artworks for the different outreach teams and other community related swag. We expect to show off some of Dhairya’s work during Nest 2021. Over the past months, the Community Outreach Revamp has drawn quite some attention, and we have presented in several community online events! We started with the Fedora Linux 34 release party in May and continued with Community Central and openSUSE virtual conference 2021. We are thrilled to have presented our “Fedora work” to non “Fedora-centric” audiences, hence sharing our experience on this year-long initiative adds more value to the notion of community efforts and contributions.

Our session: https://devconfcz2021.sched.com/event/gmLj Slides:

The Fedora Project has been a diverse project since its advent. In earlier years, Fedora outreach was primarily executed by a group of people referred to as Fedora Ambassadors. The Ambassador Program has had many success stories of community growth during its 15+ year history. However, as time moved on the program began to grow, but not scale and adapt. Different bodies of governance within Fedora had different ideas of how things should be run. With no scalability, participation in the program declined. The Fedora Action Impact Coordinator, Marie Nordin, created a team formulated of two co-leads, Mariana Balla and Sumantro Mukherjee, and a group of volunteers (Temporary Task Force (TTF)). With a lot of help and input from the rest of the community, over the course of 18 months, we gathered feedback from community members, updated and created new documentation, created new graphic elements for the different outreach teams, and established a new cadence for the ambassadors' meetings. If you are looking to do the same in your community, this is a great use case.

What is awesome? the 8bit panda recreations!! What could use some improvement? Beefy miracle has some interesting ascii art we could use - increast contrast on panda statues could add more knights, or change the color of the shields to the fedora colors

The force behind the Fedora Community Outreach Revamp (Mariana, Sumantro & myself) are organizing a hackfest type documentation session for Nest with Fedora. The main goals of the session will be updating/reviewing/pushing new documentation for the various outreach teams to Docs. We would like to make the community aware and invite anyone interested to join us at Nest this year. If you are interested in participating, read on! I encourage you to share this post with other Fedora folks who might be interested as well. The focus of the hackfest will be documenting the "Community Outreach Knowledge Base". This documentation is coming after a lot of ground work and we are really excited to host this session and see much we can get through. We have set up a wiki to track the overall work [1], and hackmd docs for each section which are linked on the wiki. The main goals of the session include: Write-up or adapt old documentation Review documentation Push the new documentation Mark old wikis as retired
