We also briefly spoke about: COSCUP 2022 - OSS conference in Taiwan with open design track - #2 by ei8fdb
OSD can volunteer to help out Eriol in supporting COSCUP and the open design conference track if they want (please DM eriol)
We then did a short recap on the ‘How to spend our OSD open collective money’ topic from mid last year.
We now have just under 10k in our Open collective and a few actions still pending. Those will be collected here Continuing conversations about fellowships/Internships in open Source Design - #5 by jdittrich along with some great ideas like what jan D raised about pairing a dev + designer on an internship + fellow.
here are some notes from the chat:
We discussed the sloan funding for scientific OSS - eriol shared their OSS papers list from their Phd: https://erioldoesdesign.notion.site/25f1dd8696544d80acd931700418ca8b?v=34c663ce82274dd3b55a79b283b09d70
“Scientific software sucks. What are the Design Tenets?”
Broad Institute = open source bio/sci software… and they have design teams what have they done, how have they tackled this?
Podcast on scientific OSS https://sosdesign.sustainoss.org/15
Gathering evidence on the problem set then you can rank order the severity of problems
Another US example: All of Us software design/development (National Institutes of Health sponsored project)
Someone need to do a wrap up of FOSDEM 2022 here’s an example from last year that Eriol wrote (badly) https://opensourcedesign.net/design/open/source/2021/05/05/FOSDEM-2021-Open-Source-Design-Devroom-wrap-up.html
Videos from FOSDEM are up! https://fosdem.org/2022/schedule/track/open_source_design/
Briefly talked about Mozfest’s format and then the UX Clinic volunteers https://www.mozillafestival.org/en/#/
Spoke about a past clinic help session with a terminal tool: multitasking in cmd line = this topic alone ups the Design reputation with engineers (if we’re making it better)
The fellowship/internship/mentoring for OSD designers
Has it been discussed whether it might be an option to link it up with GSoC for dev work?
pair coding/designing = better. I dig it.
underexposed via simsec did try that in some ways

(Design can have higher costs, especially when we screw up on Strategy, but point taken Jan on $$)
