CDF Projects & Outreachy


Tracy Miranda <tmiranda@...>
 

Hi all,

Back at the July 30th CDF TOC meeting I raised the topic of CDF projects participating in the next round of Outreachy Internships. 

I'm happy to report back that since then we have had some behind the scenes progress and have the following communities & community co-ordinators signed up for the next round
  • Jenkins X - Kara de la Marck
  • Tekton - Tara Hernandez & Christie Wilson
  • Jenkins - Tracy Miranda
I've outlined more details in this doc CDF Projects in Outreachy 2019.
Next steps are to identify and list project proposals, mentors and volunteers. Please let us know if you are interested in helping out either as mentor, volunteer or promoting it so we can reach lots of potential interns. There is also an option for companies interested in sponsoring interns. 

Also there will be an Outreachy Twitter chat on September 9th, do join in if you can!

Finally if we can add this to next TOC agenda I'll be happy to share more details.

Regards,
Tracy

Thanks for outlining this Tracy. I strongly recommend every project in the CDF
consider Outreachy. In my opinion, programs like Outreachy are the best usage
of our collective budget and influence in the community, and as Tracy notes in
the document, it's an impactful long-term investment in the greater open source
ecosystem.

I'll see you all there :)
