[06:38] bonjour [09:18] good morning! [17:44] akgraner, sorry, I forgot to ping you yesterday on time :( [17:44] no worries [17:45] what's up [17:45] I have a few minutes [17:45] cool [17:45] you know the bugsquad program is dead [17:45] also the motu's [17:45] so can we make another one but alot geenruc [17:46] generic* [17:46] to keep the [17:46] fun [17:46] and avoid the old one's problems [17:46] like mentees want us to teach them everything [17:46] and one-on-one mentorship is exhausting [17:47] w can make it a course-like [17:47] with prerequisites and tests :) [17:47] and it can be targeted at locos [17:48] to avoid one/one mentorship [17:48] and it can be open for all developers who want to grow their devels community to mentor others through it [17:48] I heard many times from Zeitgeist developers "we need to get more people in", I think they'll love it. [17:49] I'm saying this coz that mentorship program, especially the bugsquad's helped alot in the old days [17:49] I went through it and it was really fun [17:51] ppl at beginners team were trying to find someway to create a group mentorship prog, but in no avail, so far [17:51] so using locos' MLs will help alot [17:51] tyt [17:52] for example, this team, can offer to mentor new locos and it's leaders to get up and running and even to enhance their ways [18:05] * akgraner catches up- sorry had a call [18:05] no worries [18:05] well, I wrote almost everything ^ :) [18:06] I think any mentorship program will need to be in conjunction with teams already working on those things - ie - we'd need to collaborate with the loco council for mentoring there [18:07] yep, a progra m won't be offered untill some team offers it [18:07] and the Ubuntu Women Team will be rolling out a mentoring program in January - (b/c I won't have it written down until next week) [18:07] what kind of program [18:08] to mentor women? [18:08] that would be a good idea :) [18:08] it will be open to all but primarily women [18:09] Bugaquad still exists [18:09] Bugsquad [18:09] no, it came to end [18:09] only QA was split off [18:09] a few weeks ago [18:09] that's meetings, not mentorship [18:10] I'll need to look into that - Carlos and those folks still mentor people [18:10] so you'll need to get with them on that [18:11] I am sure they would be happy to have help :-) [18:11] I'm thinking you have some good ideas, but the next 2 weeks probably aren't a good time to roll out anything new [18:11] but let's revisit it all after 3 January [18:12] yep, I agree with this [18:12] when people don't have vacation and holidays on their minds [18:13] akgraner, https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-bugsquad/2011-November/003550.html [18:14] however, myself still mentoring some, but unofficial [18:14] =uncontrolable [18:14] uncontrollable* [18:14] ahh ok [18:15] bbiab thanks for the link [18:15] yw :) [18:34] hi there!
