Description

Jenkins advocacy and outreach special interest group meeting from Aug 1, 2019.

A

Okay, I've kicked off the recording, so hi everybody and welcome to the latest advocacy and outreach sake.

A

I've got in some actions but feel free to. If there's something pressing, let me know- and we can add it into the agenda and if there's any highlights from last week, I don't think I've gone through the previous actions. You can call this out, so the main focus from my side was a lot of the events related to the Jenkins at DevOps, world Incans. Well, the contributor summit and I think we've got on their community bridge update from Oleg. So before we start going into that. Are there any other kind of main topics?

A

People want to highlight at this point a.

B

Community community sorry community booth at Jenkins were all you've got it's their community booth content at Jenkins. World I had an action item to see if we could get platforms sake in for a presentation and only just sent the question to Alyssa. Today, okay,.

A

Okay, yeah: let's talk about that under the Jenkins, a devops world bit cool, okay, let's start get into their previous actions: I have not written any blog posts, so those will hold over okay Jenkins contributor summit.

A

So this was the event which will be on the Monday August 12th I believe from here myself and Maki will be at that.

C

Yes, I'll, be here.

A

So I think the main thing was in the morning: I'm helping set the agenda for kind of cross, continuous delivery foundation projects agenda, so we'd sort of share project overviews, talk about topics that are cross community, like outreach like internship programs and things like that.

A

But then for the afternoon would want to have specific Jenkins topics, so I guess just figuring out like if we can just leave it to the day to organize to self-organize or what the best way to perhaps get some topic suggestions ahead of time and maybe short talks that people want to do.

A

So I guess one question: he is there any topic that you would like to present on the.

C

Launch demo on Tuesday ashame.

A

Okay, so is that something you'd be interested as well kind of maybe doing a dry run at the contributor summit to just open up topics for discussion. Yeah.

C

I can tell.

A

So remind me what that topic was.

C

Scanning problem.

A

Great okay and I know folks, like the folks from Booz, Allen Hamilton will be there and they can talk about pipeline templating. So if I get maybe three to five topics of people who can do things and then maybe the rest will will just follow from there, does that sound reasonable to everybody.

A

Oh actually, oh, like are you aware, if maybe Natasha is going to be around? Would that be somebody who I should approach about speaking or demoing at the contributor summit.

D

Yeah with the machine, if somebody else talks about the ji-sook because it was mark, you will be there- maybe Jeff Pierce I'm, not sure why they know Jeff is not going to the contributors summit will be different today. Okay,.

A

Okay, yes good point: Martin will be there so I'll ask him I'll reach out to him about gee sock and then a touch I can speak Steven on the pipe 2010 plating and machi on scanning, and then from there we can just kind of find common topics or areas. People want to explore further perfect, that's cool.

B

You'd, be there I'll be on-site that I'm presenting training all that day, so I will miss the contributor summit. Unfortunately I'm. My my day, job requires that I present this particular trainee.

C

Would it help if I, if maybe I, spoke about Doc's I.

B

Would love to have anybody spoke to speak about Doc's? That is willing to speak anything at all about you? Yes, please yeah.

C

You could bring me down for that. I can I can do that and I'll synch with you, maybe mmm but prior to you, traveling and I'll get you know some I want to attend. More I haven't attended as much as I'd like to but I'll sing to you to get us. You know start getting a slide deck together and then I can speak to that great.

B

That would be wonderful. Thank you very much. You're.

C

C

A

All right, okay, just putting some action items for me to follow up on perfect. That sounds great. Okay. Let's move on to actually just before. We finish that I think I may have mentioned it, but just for good measure for those who are attending there will be a contributor appreciation event that evening so plan to attend.

A

You will get an email, we're not publicizing it widely because of gate crashes in the past, so you'll get an email kind of sending you details and yet Mark would definitely love you if you can enjoy after thing after the training. So they'll be great: okay, moving on to Jenkins a DevOps all Jenkins world, so there is a community booth there and I believe Alissa has set the program, for that.

A

Was there some specific other requests.

B

Oleg and I had done a talk last year on platform, progress and used it as a great excuse to highlight the community's advancement of things like Java 11 release draft or depend upon all sorts of things that we've done initiative. Wise and I. Had the action item previously and was delayed on it to ask to get a slot in that to do a pitch on a 10-minute pitch or 15-minute pitch on platform. Progress I was intending to just grab some of all leg. Slides, combine them together with something I, might add and then present that.

B

But that depends, if Elvis has the slot available. So.

A

I believe for the lunchtime, demos, those were completely full, however, so this is kind of the official like what gets on the program the slots were all taken and we had somebody else who was waiting but couldn't get in.

A

That being said, we added a session into the agenda and I don't know if this would work for what you're suggesting, but it we called it just an open space for Jenkins.

A

So we kind of put down each CDF project with a 45-minute room, and the idea was actually just to put the banner off hey, Jenkins people, let's get together and let's kind of bring together. Whatever topic we want to discuss, everybody can make suggestions in the beginning, then we sort of post-it note vote and then we go through kind of either lightning talks or demos or discussion points.

A

So it's a bit kind of more peer-led, but it would be great maybe to have that topic like the platform. Seeing updates I think that would be very popular. Let.

B

Me let me plan to attend back when I hadn't noticed the Jenkins open space. I'll, try to live by open space rules there and propose without trying to to demand or get too pushy yeah.

A

I think the topic sounds like it would be. It would go down very well in terms of well, it sort of depends on the audience, because sometimes you get as Andrew Beier tells me everybody who wants their pipelines fixed and don't care about anything else, but potentially that could be good alright. So let me so.

C

That's a 45 minutes based on it. That's what in 15 minute increments, right, no open spaces.

B

Are typically the audience decides what topics they want to choose right? It has a it's a variant, yeah.

C

B

Unconference is exactly the model yeah at least that's what I'm assuming Tracy right? Yes, yeah.

A

And we were going to take an approach, perhaps that we would have people would sign up topics the day before at the booth. So we'd have like a sheet of paper and then people could propose topics, and then people equally could vote on things so maybe going into it. We don't spend the whole time kind of organizing, but just a few minutes.

C

If you need any help with this I'm more than happy to help you with it, I do have a little bit of knowledge in the unka on conference based I'm, actually also doing the unconference for kubernetes. You kind of San Diego, so I'm very well-versed on this one.

A

That is amazing because it's basically Kara, and so my team had suggested it and I kind of said. Okay sounds good, I, don't really know I've been to one before, which was not very effective at another conference. So having someone who has seen what an effect his face looks like okay, consider yourself signed up yeah.

B

Marky, that's! That's wonderful, because I consider that cat hurting at the at the most challenging form of cat hurting nerve. It is.

C

Evolved very quickly, yeah I got some really good ideas on on how we could make this successful, perfect.

A

The other thing is: do you have any restrictions on when you're available because I we should just check that you can do the time there cuz there's a slight potential. We might rearrange the schedule. I am.

C

Available for the whole week for this conference, okay.

A

E

You presenting.

C

Here at the I'm doing the lunch lunch demos on Thursday at 15, iMessage, stuff, 15, more slot, okay,.

A

So I'll make sure yeah I, don't I believe these are the breakout sessions, so they wouldn't clash with the lunchtime demos, okay,.

C

A

In case just in case, we move it I, but it will, it will still be on. Thursday will just be one of the other slots, um yeah and I. Think like at 4 stam.

A

We had a session where we just put Jenkins on the on the head line and we said: hey come for Jenkins I'll talk about you and just loads of people showed up, and it does end up being really useful because you get a lot of users who we don't normally necessarily have access to, and it's always nice to have them come along and and kind of open up awesome yeah.

A

That makes me happy and yeah I had mentioned to the folks as well from Booz Allen Hamilton and they will come along with their pipeline templating stuff. So they want any opportunity to share that with interested parties. Ok,.

A

Next bit is the booth collateral, so this was a request from Alissa who I was hoping could join, but she's been pretty swamped this week she was looking for ideas, for we normally have these post cards at the booth and I think last year. It was along the lines of superpowers, but it's kind of like what key messaging do we want people to take away? What should they focus on? Maybe what QR codes two key sites on Jenkins? You know if there's anything in the community you were trying to draw attention to.

A

This is a good way to do it. So I just wanted to throw that out there. If anybody had ideas of suggestions of things, we should put on little cards like postcards that will give out at the booth. Let me know and I'll feed that back to Elissa, so any thoughts on this. It.

C

Would be nice if we made a link, may be some type of a QR that would link to the SIG's to me, we sort of start spreading the adoption message to join SIG's.

A

Yeah, that's good. We haven't been too vocal about those.

D

Posters with all six tries to project yep.

C

D

You know that we still don't have focus on outreach stick. So then we can take something.

A

Okay, so links to the home pages and kind of the just the tabs of all the different ones, just to raise awareness. These things even exist. Yeah.

D

Maybe just quote Lincoln to seek speech similar to what we did for three channels, I suppose.

A

Even the outreach channels would be would be a good one. We could promote those.

D

A

There's a kind of less white Martin's doing a poster for that, so that could be yeah.

D

Marsten, a post of my h-net, you must create a landing page and it will be under focus on outreach, seek so just a pitch for that.

A

Just copying your comment in mark.

A

Perfect yeah now that's great I'll feed that back any other ideas on this topic.

A

Okay and then just finally I think, if there's anything else on the whole conference I'd, let me know: there's the booth, demos, there's the open spaces, there's the kind of ask the experts as well so yeah I, think lots of nice opportunities and things going on there. So we'll see how that goes.

A

Moving on so community bridge update and I'll hand over to you like this, it's.

D

Just good thing.

D

You'll have one project: this slide, I mean Jake, asked development tools. So yesterday we can be approved budget for this project, so the budget will be at the level of google Summer of Code. These conditional sponsorship for the web's voltage and installed in.

F

D

So basically, all the approval sign please and the project may be effectively today because sliding occurs already start working so yeah. The data is for Monica and.

A

It's for months here.

D

Three months, so we created together channel will be created and other things the rejection item to have a project page most like it will be under Jake asked sub-project. So you'll have a sub page for this project and yeah I'll. Make sure that it's in from advocacy and outreach somehow and one of hopeful of action items is to have a job draft which just documents the process me defined as a template for the projects.

D

If we decide to do so so basically, a job ich will define how community works, with budgeting target values and other things. So.

D

A

No, that sounds really good. What's the Gator channel is that just for the specific project.

E

A

E

So yeah just to try.

A

To clarify that.

D

Development, even a blog post, once everything's in place just.

D

A

Mark you're, the mentor for sluttiness at.

D

Writers, 19 Jacob, so two main thing I think with configuration opinion.

A

Great okay, anything else on community bridge.

A

I guess it's just worth saying: I met with the folks who are developing it at the Linux Foundation, so that was Cara and myself and they gave us a walkthrough of all the different things. They're planning, it's pretty cool I think it's still pretty raw in some places, so they're trying to work out how to prioritize different things, but they have the different pages so and I think Oleg. You might have seen this.

A

It's easy to get lost on the site, because one side is the the kind of funding side and one side is the internship kind of the projects and then there's also a security bit.

A

So the whole idea of the platform is that it will integrate lots of things so, for instance, they intend to have like sneak security scanning integrated, there's a bug in it. So you won't see it at the moment, but in the future it will start highlighting kind of all the security warnings from that, and then they connect up to this other page called stack share where people sort of say with the self-report, whether they're using it in their stack like Jenkins in their stack. So then it starts showing kind of adoption in a different way.

A

So it's pretty cool, it can be pretty powerful, but let's see how it evolves, yeah, but I think for now, just as this chuseok as a service, it's just what we need.

D

D

A

So and I think they see the funding is, you know anything a way to sponsor events as well or to fund specific development or whatever initiatives. So we can think about it quite widely.

A

Hey Alyssa: let's see you Isis.

F

A

I'm I'm you I was just gonna say we have dealt, we kind of went on to the DevOps wall, Jenkins world topics, so I, don't know. If you wanted to revisit. We had some good suggestions for things around the booth collateral, specifically advertising all the different working groups, the sakes and then who are codes to that. So I think that will be kind of a nice idea we can tie in okay. So who can help me pull that together? Who will provide all the content?

A

I can give you pointers to the key ones yeah and the landing page for each one, who's just host on the QR codes in the past? Do we know small Selina can help me with that? Okay,.

F

And then so I so I just want to mention on a related topic, but I got your email mark for the platform, sig I'm waiting for a confirmation. So right now we don't have slots available, but I'm waiting for confirmation from a person who hasn't registered and hasn't responded. So I'm, not sure if he's gonna be at the conference. Speaking I gave him until tomorrow end of day to let me know so. If he's not going to be able to make it then we'll be able to fit you in okay.

B

So that would be one of the lightning talks during the lunch hour. Yeah.

F

Or do you need 45 minutes? I guess I should have asked that a little.

B

Bit well, there's there's usually 45 minutes of fun topics to discuss, but no way a lightning top is already great I. Like hearing the lunch hour. Lets us highlight to people hey the platform. Sig is helping you, you can help the platform say: okay,.

F

Oh yeah, it's okay, so yes, I was referring to 15 minutes, so that works so I'll. Let you know I'm not ignoring you just want to. Let you know that cool.

A

Okay, was there anything else of things so.

F

I think the only thing left for me so the collateral. So this is a good starting point and then a rolling deck. You know how we have the the rolling deck to help promote. You know to talk about what's happening at the within our booth, so so Tracy would you have last year's deck that you can send me and then we'll just update that I? Yes,.

A

To the first, a bit I do have it I sent it to you, I'm, not sure it's that reusable, because some of the things in there have not progressed right. What it might be good to do is maybe, if we can get folks here to reach out to the community and get like one page on gee sock and then I can provide like one page and outreach e and I can get mad seeker to help with that yeah. So we just kind of dish out the one pages on all the various things happening. Yes,.

F

A

See let me help do that. Alyssa.

B

You use some code words that I didn't quite comprehend. Could you you describe it in the context of somebody who doesn't understand what so this is a series of slides that are presented on a TV yeah.

F

So if sudden, you recall at the at the community booth, we have several screens so it'll be the same format this year, and so the the the goal is that you know. While the screen is idle, that we have this rolling deck, it's like a marketing deck basically, and we would play that on those screens when those screens are not being used and.

A

People just tend to stop and stare. So I think this is the one we had last year yeah.

A

So it was talking about the five super power projects and meet the ambassadors, but I think the approach for this year would be most sync focused, but we could keep some things in, like maybe everlean it provides. An update for configuration is code mark if we got something a one-page on platform. Sig highlights I, think platform.

B

And documents I'll get them both in that deck. Just to be part of this rolling. Okay.

A

So, let's do that so, let's see so, we've got Jake asked Doc's platform sig outreach.

A

So let's split this up, so we can do G sock Oh, like do you think, you'd be happy to do something on a slide on Chuseok.

D

So we have one sided, but it's a bit outdated, yeah probably find a new one.

A

And I'll reach out to the folks like Rick, might have some stuff on the Chinese sake: cool, okay, so I'll do that and then maybe we could just kind of crud sauce it yeah very perfect.

D

I can also try doing something for community bridge and they become definitely. You have just.

D

Slides for a project and all series things so, for example, when you start sick section, you can just have a slide to each year, because all six we just coughing.

D

A

You think it would be fine as well, if we put in some of the like one pages for some of the interesting technical projects, so I'm thinking things like kubernetes operator, some of the cloud providers are promoting their plugins for storage, so both Microsoft and Google have a set of Jenkins plugins for cloud storage.

E

Whatever works.

D

And technically I'm not sure how many screens we have, but we might have just two sides.

D

A

So we'll see whoever can respond and yeah.

F

I see is CGI creating a template for kousaka's keynote. Maybe we can use some of that design in this template. They are but I.

A

Don't know at the time I don't recall the timelines for it. I can check.

A

Oh that's true, because they he'll be doing a lot more on kind of the 15 years of Jenkins. So maybe we might want to fill in that theme as well.

A

Yeah I think definitely having that the butler logo with the 15 year.

A

A

Okay, okay, so next item is Oktoberfest events, Oh lake yeah.

D

So it's another heads-up Oktoberfest. Yet asleep you don't happen this year, a surprising bit it'll happen in October as usual and yeah. They are going to start announcements and preparing everything you know early September, but basically, last year we had a positive experience with several meetups revenant around Oktoberfest. So maybe this year we could facilitate this topic in the community. Earlier, maybe send message to meet up organizers and whatever so that you can organize money talks even hotter about the same time yeah. That sounds good.

D

Yes, oh yeah, it's probably a topic to discuss after this whole. So at the next meeting, I was going to happen. Yeah we already have a discussion about hug fest or whatever it's called around the g-shot mentor summit, because you'll have several people in may need, including me and Marquis and distension. So hopefully we will get organized and there may be something. This isn't. I'm, not sure time allows I mean if anybody else is interested organize universities, please just do it.

A

Quick I should remind me how long it tends to run for two weeks a month a month.

D

So basically Oktoberfest is online event, but Oktoberfest also encourages local community organizers from onset events. So basically, it's just a happy tone focusing on a few particular projects with some introductions overview, so the hot rubber trees etc and some demos in the end. So what I'm going to do this year? I want to just harvest on the morning and then community up on Damien if living yellows, so that we can come on what activities but yeah the framework easier to be defined, and basically it really depends on meet apparent answers.

D

If they want to run it, they can choose whatever format they want. Okay,.

A

That sounds like a good thing to just build up to, and this seems like the right time to start raising that.

D

Consciousness almost hurt so good. First, we go down to for TE contributors in the agendas organization. Unfortunately, this year was unable to calculate it properly because they stopped acquire Oktoberfest label. So maybe we put more than 40, but they cannot see for sure and also it's not bad yeah.

A

Great okay, so moving from high October fest to hackathon and DevOps, all Jenkins will Lisbon go ahead. Oh like given a split with this. So.

D

I was in discussions about a bit and, if not, would be the technical possibility to organise that, for example, like meeting nice last year, yeah yeah just the question I say.

A

Alyssa, do we have we mapped out kind of contributor summits or anything for Lisbon?

A

Have we said any of that? Yet now.

F

A

We haven't what is the main day of the conference. Let me take.

F

F

So Tracy do you think CDF would want to join.

A

The big problem with that one is going to be that eat cube corn is really close by so all.

F

A

Bandwidth of organizing, at the same time, it's gonna be tricky and this a lot less presence in Europe right.

F

A

Don't know okay.

F

So Conference days are December 3rd to the 5th.

F

December tickler, so probably the main conference days will be the 4th and the 5th as the main conference today and usually the day before that, so which is the 3rd. We do workshops and trainings mm-hmm.

A

So if we said something like the second would be a contribute to summit and maybe on the 3rd, we could have an optional hackathon if there was interest. Yes, do you think that's workable.

C

F

Would have to see if the venue is available in the second and we've contracted the second at the Monday. Ok,.

A

Oh, we could have to do it the other way around. If we need we do the hackathon on the Monday at odd. We couldn't pick a different location like a co-working space or something, and then the third would be the contributor summit or something like that. Yeah mm-hmm.

F

Yeah, let me see I can check with the team to see what space we have available on Monday. If.

A

Any so just to be clear, so I'd be happy to help organize the contributors summit. Oleg sounds like you'd, be happy to try organize a hackathon.

D

A

And as separate things or you know, there's also the possibility we just kind of fold them into one thing. So.

F

All like the hackathon are you thinking like an all-day thing.

D

They don't work well, okay, yes princess! There is no particular need to have it on-site, so, okay, yeah hackathon, you have much more freedom with it. Obviously with us. Thank you space on site. We would be happy to use right if not if we can find another opportunity. Okay, so yeah.

D

Second looks more reasonable, yep I'm, not sure. What's the point for workshops, because the contributors some it may shock some participants, while hook up I, don't know one like you do that.

F

You you, okay, I'll, find out for us.

D

Thank you yep, so you have written. We have some time. So it's not a problem which we discussed September of the jinkies world, but the Apple contributor Senate. Maybe it's more important because it will require a bigger venue.

D

F

A

A

Okay, so I've got to the end of the agenda items. Is there anything else people want to ask about or raise.

C

Nothing for me.

A

A

Have still not organized myself enough to have got YouTube access apologies, but if anybody can help I will share the drive up and then stick the link in get a chat.

F

Thank you, Mark Suman,.

B

Goes to the Jenkins, the Jenkins channel or the Jenkins YouTube channel, and is there if there's a playlist that you wanted attached to as well? Let me know what that is: yeah.

A

I believe, like it's nice, very well created as a playlist that we can use.

D

D

A

Do magic great okay, thanks everybody bye.

C
