Individuals and organizations encounter barriers, often limited with a single non-local, cloud solution. In some cases, there is no option at all. Additionally, a lack of technology training programs can result in aspiring entrepreneurs and workers leaving the region for training, taking their skills and ideas with them. Many organizations and individuals are working separately to solve these problems. The OpenInfra community works best when we collaborate without boundaries by embracing the Four Opens. This session will establish an opportunity to level the playing field through open collaboration, creating a unified place to help these groups work together and share knowledge around solving these problems through open infrastructure, open connectivity, micro transactions, and technology training programs. You can find the notes from this forum here: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/collaboration-wo-boundaries-vancouver-forum-2023 I would like to propose a meeting time for an initial meeting to discuss setting up the working group.The time I propose is Wednesday, July 26 at 1500 UTC. We can meet via https://meetpad.opendev.org/CWB . A few goals of our initial meeting: - Outlining goals for the working group - Deciding a format for meetings - Deciding a meeting cadence - Decide topic for the next meeting Here is an etherpad to track the progress of the working group: https://meetpad.opendev.org/etherpad/p/cwb Cheers, Helena helena at openinfra.dev Marketing & Community Coordinator The OpenInfra Foundation -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Today, we hosted the first Collaborating without Boundaries Working Group meeting. We have decided to format the meetings so that each meeting will host one lightning talk followed by a discussion around the presented topics. Following the meeting we will produce a Superuser article summarizing the lightning talk and discussion. The meetings will meet once a month on the 4th Wednesday of the month at 1500 UTC on https://meetpad.opendev.org/CWB The next meeting will be moderated by Seongsoo Cho who will present a lightning talk on how the Korea user group is promoting OpenStack to their region and collaborating with the local university. Next meeting: Wednesday, August 23, 15:00UTC See the notes from today?s meeting here: https://meetpad.opendev.org/etherpad/p/cwb Cheers, Helena helena at openinfra.dev Marketing & Community Coordinator The OpenInfra Foundation -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Jitsi-Meet's room names are case-insensitive so connecting as CWB or cwb (or cWb...) will end up communicating with the same people, but it always maps to a lower-case pad name in Etherpad (which is case-sensitive). > See the notes from today?s meeting here: > https://meetpad.opendev.org/etherpad/p/cwb For future convenience, you can get to the pad without proxying through Jitsi-Meet too: https://etherpad.opendev.org/cwb Hope that helps! -- Jeremy Stanley
