Hi,
Please add me to this and future calendar invites ☺.
In general, it would be helpful for me if events like this had an attached calendar
invite, or if I could sign up for calendar invites.
It is too easy to miss email and I am, regrettably, very calendar driven.
What do others think? Is there some way to automate this?
Regards,
Michael

Subject: [Community] Getting it started-up: Community SIG
Hi all:
So we get to instantiate a new special interest group focused on all of the aspects of
using, participating in, and contributing to an open source project: the Community SIG or
`sig-community`.[1]
I propose we have an instantiating meeting this week and decide on some clear proposals to
take back to this list, including figuring out a plan for when the Community SIG meets and
how.
But this meeting-to-decide-when-to-have-a-meeting should be as accessible as possible.
Instead of real time voice or video, how about a semi-live discussion over a block hours
in Slack?
I propose we meet in Slack on Wednesday 19 January in the now-renamed #sig-community
channel. We can have a real-time and asynchronous discussion, recorded in the channel with
the logs archived and sent to this list.
19 January 2022
13:30 UTC - 19:30 UTC
(05:30 - 11:30 PST)

Who is planning to come? I can add you to a calendar invite.
Can I get some facilitating help? I don't plan to be there for maybe the first hour,
but I will be there ahead of time seeding the agenda. If one or two of you are there at
the opening, welcome people with The Spiel*, and lurk or guide. You can do this alongside
other work, etc.
Looking forward to seeing you all then!
- Karsten
* The Spiel is the kind and useful welcoming message you'll give a few times, and it
should include relevant links for the meeting.
[1] The new governance instantiates only two SIGs, Community and Operations. The
Operations SIG scope is all the things running the prototype Operate First community cloud
environment. Therefore, anything not in that is in the purview of the Community SIG: user
and contributor experience, training, marketing, social media, organizing and building the
community, etc.
