Notes from 02/09/2020 OSD meeting at 18.00 GMT // 19.00 CEST

  • We had an interesting random conversation about code of conducts :slight_smile:

Merging Repos

  • Do we remember correctly that as many repos as we can need to be merged into this one: https://github.com/opensourcedesign/opensourcedesign.github.io/

  • Git submodule in PR from Saptak, but this got merged in another repo.

  • AP: Saptak, create an issue to describe some of the merging work to be done.

  • AP: Eriol, to look for a discourse thread that describes the merging repo’s or create one.

  • AP: Eriol to create a articles/posts readme file to help people when adding in articles.

Homepage task

FOSDEM 2021

  • Online not announced details about platform yet. Just date announced. Wait and see about details.

  • Start planning the OSD track. What do we need? Let’s put together the planning, forms, schedule, blog post etc.

  • How will booth/tables be done? if at all?

  • AP Eriol: To raise a discourse thread & message around the core team for who wants to be invovled.

  • Not worried about getting enough talks there are lots of good people now submitting lots of talks :D.

  • Eriol & Perrie happy to start planning/communicating etc.

OSD summit

  • 3 vote for yes this is interesting and we could join together but more info needed.

  • Question: Do we have a separate full day of a summit or do we do a ‘track’ at open source diversity

  • Question: Will Open Source Diversity Summit 2021 be online or in-person?

  • Having a physical event is more effective for difficult/invovled conversations as remote is tricky. But will it be safe :frowning:

-OS Diversity thread located here on their discourse: https://discourse.opensourcediversity.org/t/o-s-d-summit-charting-next-steps-for-september-2020/431

OSCA (Open Source Community Africa)

  • After a very busy 2020, Perrie is increasing time spent on Open Source Design work and the OSCA community, are there ways to work closer together/partner?

  • AP: Perries to share the OSCA sustain event doc where we asked the OSCA community what they want from design + OSS.

  • Can send a message to the Nigeria team re. ownership of that team and others that want to be involved in a more involved partnership with OSD

  • Note, Perrie’s discourse post: Open Source Design X Open Source Community Africa

I’m thinking about doing another OSD community meeting next week at a USA friendly timezone :slight_smile:
