[diversity] Diversity & Inclusion in Open Source
by Emma Irwin 03 Jan '18

03 Jan '18

Hi Fedora Diversity Group, I am so happy to know you exist! Someone in the Fedora women's list suggested I reach out. My name is Emma, and I work on Diversity and Inclusion at Mozilla. Last year we invested in a lot of research to better understand <https://medium.com/mozilla-open-innovation/a-time-for-action-innovating-for…> what we mean by diversity and inclusion, with a number of recommendations coming out of that. Two of those recommendations were to build metrics that matter, <https://medium.com/mozilla-open-innovation/reflection-inclusive-organizing-…> and to invest in ways of collaborating with other individuals and open projects - to really generate change. To those goals I want to ask *if you would be wiling to share our survey <https://discourse.mozilla.org/t/diversity-inclusion-in-open-source-survey/2…> *with your community, and whether anyone representing this group would be available for an interview with our researcher - who is looking into how we might form a collaborative for D&I in open source. Thanks for your time, and of course happy to take questions or provide more information on our work! 2018 for sure is all about taking our research, and driving real change this year - would love to learn from you as well! -Emma -- Emma Irwin Community Development Open Innovation Team

[diversity] Re: Accommodation for FOSDEM
by Radka Janekova 18 Dec '17

18 Dec '17

We've been discussing this as one of the problems of inclusion with some of the Diversity (+cc) members, basically the problem is that we can not assume ones orientation and how comfortable they are running around almost naked around what kind of strangers. We can not even ask for an explanation because that already invites a situation where someone will rather run away than having to explain something so deeply personal. Whatever the reasons are, if one is not okay with room sharing, they should still be able to contribute. Anyone got anything to add to the problem? Should we discuss this problem in a meeting or a ticket?

[diversity] [Minutes] [2017-12-08] Council seat, Flock 2017 videos, DevConf
by Justin W. Flory 13 Dec '17

13 Dec '17

Hey all, the Diversity Team meeting ended a few moments ago. We finalized the charter for the Diversity Team to the Council, and a new ticket will be filed in the Council to finalize this. We did a check-in on the Flock 2017 video discussion based on what we collected. We also pitched the idea of a short meeting during DevConf to plan out some goals for the next year, since most of our team will be there. We will also meet as scheduled next week on December 15th, usual time. Thanks again for everyone that came out! = = = = = Meeting ended Fri Dec 8 13:57:41 2017 UTC.
