Call for Action - Add your FAS details on Fedora Women Wiki page
by Bhagyashree Uday 25 Jan '16

25 Jan '16

Hello all, I am Bee(IRC nick : bee2502) and I am a part of the Fedora Community Operations Team(#fedora-commops on IRC). Diversity in Fedora is a discussion that has resurfaced in the past few months, including the creation of a Fedora Diversity Adviser, a position currently held by María "tatica" Leandro. As part of the objectives identified by the Fedora Council, an initiative to promote Fedora to new contributors of various backgrounds is being emphasized for 2016. Fedora Women is central to this effort for increasing diversity. However, to get an understanding of our current strengths and weaknesses - we’re going to need hard data about our community, its composition, and their priorities and interests, so that we can test hypotheses, and then create and execute a strategy. A good start in this direction seems like adding your FAS details to the list of existing women contributors in Fedora on the Fedora Women Wiki page - which has just eight women contributors listed currently ! https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Women You can find the ticket to discuss any issues and concerns regarding this in Community Operations Team Trac Instance : https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-commops/ticket/23 Cheers, Bee

Hello all, I just finished drafting the companion "pointer" article for the Fedora Magazine to last week's "Women in Computing and Fedora" article on the Community Blog. The article has been finished and just needs a featured image to be complete. A review for content, as always, is appreciated and welcome. You can find the article preview at the following link (remember you have to be signed into the Magazine to view the preview): https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=11670 I think pushing out this article in the upcoming week would be best. Thanks all! -- Cheers, Justin W. Flory jflory7(a)gmail.com
