[openstack-community] Groups Portal Discontinuation
by Ashlee Ferguson 27 Jun '20

27 Jun '20

Hi everyone, I think most of you are aware that we’ve launched a Meetup Pro account <https://www.meetup.com/pro/osf/> so we could take on the cost of Meetup from the local organizers. We currently have 16 official User Groups on the page. As of the third week of April, the groups.openstack.org <http://groups.openstack.org/> portal will be discontinued. We’d like to take this opportunity to start an initiative to move all User Groups <https://groups.openstack.org/groups> over to the Meetup Pro account for a single point of truth. This will increase discoverability for groups, and help us better support community growth. In light of the feedback we’ve received from you all, we’ll encourage groups to have at least 4 meetups per year (one meetup per quarter) going forward as a minimum requirement for being in the Meetup Pro network. However, we realize that circumstances that might prevent you from having meetups happen. In that case, please feel free to reach out directly to me. We really want to work with you all to make sure our community is supported so it can continue growing. User Group 6 Month Trial We’ll be offering a 6 month trial period, where the Foundation will temporarily sponsor groups to be on the Pro account (which costs USD $15/month per group). We’ve previously required groups to have at least 5-6 meetups per year in order to be funded, but If the group has at least 2 independent meetups during this 6 month period, we will continue funding the group to be a part of the official network. If groups fail to host meetups, and do not contact me, the funding will be discontinued and it won’t be visible on the Foundation’s official community network. Next Steps If you are the main organizer of your group, email me (ashlee(a)openstack.org), and I’ll send a link to connect your Meetup account to our Foundation Meetup Pro network. If you don’t have a Meetup account, and you do not wish to use Meetup.com <http://meetup.com/>, please send me the link to your group’s page, or let me know how you coordinate meetups. Thanks so much for your patience as we make this move! Reach out to me if you have any questions. Ashlee Ashlee Ferguson OpenStack Foundation ashlee(a)openstack.org

[openstack-community] Ambassador program feedback wanted!
by John Studarus 01 May '19

01 May '19

Hi everyone, We, the User Committee, have been brainstorming on the OpenStack Ambassador Program and would like to get input from the community at large! How has the OpenStack Ambassador Program helped you? Where do you think the OpenStack Ambassador Program can be improved? We're primarily brainstorming on how to improve the program transparency (terms and the criteria for nomination/selection), areas of responsibility (by geography? by interest?), and general purpose (to support user groups? to promote OpenStack?). Feel free to email back to the list or jot down your thoughts on this etherpad: https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/uc-ambassador-governance Or you are welcome to reach the User Committee directly on our mail list: http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/user-committee Thank you! John

Hi everyone, The Open Infrastructure Summit Denver starts next week, so I wanted to send a couple reminders: Make sure to add the Community Leadership Session <https://www.openstack.org/summit/denver-2019/summit-schedule/events/23783/c…> to your schedule! We’ll be discussing the role of Ambassadors <https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/uc-ambassador-governance>, the new Meetup Pro account, and the ways we can better support User Groups. Groups.openstack.org <http://groups.openstack.org/> is discontinued, and we have moved the User Groups to Meetup.com/pro/osf <http://meetup.com/pro/osf>. If you are the main organizer of your group’s Meetup account, and would like your User Group to join the OSF network, please email me (ashlee(a)openstack.org <mailto:ashlee@openstack.org>). Sign up for the Community Newsletter <https://app.e2ma.net/app2/audience/signup/1812998/1771360.67301216/> and stay in the know about the latest OpenStack release, Stein, as well as OpenStack Foundation project news, including the recent confirmation of Kata Containers as an official OSF project. Hope to see you in Denver! Ashlee
