[openstack-community] [upstream] Vancouver upstream training session debrief
by Stefano Maffulli 03 Jun '15

03 Jun '15

Hello folks, first of all thank you to all instructors and volunteer staff and mentors that helped in Vancouver: this program would not be possible without the kind donations of your time and effort. I'd like to collect notes and comments on what went well and what should be changed for the next events. I'll start (quite long): Slides & content ================ - I think the rst format and common repository worked well. We miss one (set of) slides to illustrate the whole 2 days program. Maybe copying the content over from the wiki Info page[1] to the index.rst page would be a good thing. - the index.rst is not formatted properly. Christian Berendt is working on this and may need a help from sphinx/hieroglyph gurus https://review.openstack.org/#/c/185946/ - the draft site[2] is great. I think that keeping the slides in /draft/ is good enough since the status of those slides may not be always up to date with the authoritative source of information like governance.o.o or infra/manual - with the slides in .rst format and in a git repo, I think they could be hooked to a translation system. I'd consider hooking up and translate the material in other languages. Japanese would be the most likely candidate, and people from China have expressed also interest. - suggestions and commentts from the participants: + Maybe work through some more demos - ie, run through committing a change to sandbox doing it "live" from the presenter desk + Point out the differences between docs and code reviews - environment prerequisites + Talk about gating checks - ie, what the automated checks are actually checking for. + It might be worth considering recording it and making it like a Coursera course or a Kahn Academy course. + The slideshow can improved. It should contain more graphics (ex: apc/atc relation), clickable links (ex: stackforge). + It would be great to collect a list of bugs which are really "low hanging" fruits, so that they can be solved during the two days. + Teach about the source code. How it's organized? Why is it so? After rpm/deb packaging, where do files go on the root filesystem? How do I run tests? How do I write my own tests? What if I need to introduce a new file? How are the python packages arranged? How do subprograms communicate to each other? + consider separating software developers and technical writers One more comment led me to believe that we have not done a good job at communicating that the training is 2 days live + mentoring sessions afterwards. See below for ideas on how to fix this. Administrative process ====================== - Planning attendance is hard. Of the 85+ people who originally signed up, about 45 showed up. I noticed that about 10 people removed themselves when we started sending notifications in preparation to the live session. I think that the barrier to sign up is too low and we can raise it so that only highly motivated people sign up to attend. The low barrier also makes it hard for people to read and understand that the training is 2 days live + online mentoring afterwards. + To set the bar higher, I think we need to find a way to scale the method used by Loic. He engages with every applicant immediately, as they sign up, and if they don't respond to his solicitations he removes them from the list. That's very intense and time consuming but ends up getting more motivated people. I think this can be scaled by having a larger pool of mentors that gets to solicit applicants. A form of light automation using Google Forms and Trello (with glue provided by zapier.com) may be enough? Needs experimenting. + To make it clear that the training is 2 days + live sessions I think we should have people engage with mentors and set dates for meetings *before* the training starts. - I think the Trello board is a good step forward: it allows staff and management to follow progress of each student. Format ====== - I'm starting to think that to days is probably too much for some people. The comments I have received from the survey are all extremely positive but a couple of written comments make me believe that trying to shorten the class to 1 day and 1 extra day for custom deep dives would probably give more value. This deserves a thread on its own. Venue & logistics ================= - Participants and staff should have their names printed to facilitate social interactions - Renting the Legos was the best idea ever. Definitely worth considering for the future. Thanks again, stef [1] https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/OpenStack_Upstream_Training/Info [2] http://docs.openstack.org/draft/upstream-training/#1

[openstack-community] [Upstream] Meeting in Vancouver on Friday evening
by Stefano Maffulli 15 May '15

15 May '15

Hello trainers and volunteer mentors, it's time: we start on Saturday morning. Like in other times, we should meet on Friday evening before the start to give one first look at the rooms and review the plan together. I am landing in YVR tomorrow at 4pm. We should try to meet, maybe around 7:30pm or so. How about we meet at the bar of the Pacific Rim hotel at 7:30pm? I'll be checking my email and hang out on IRC, too. There are still a couple of patches to the training material that need to land but all in all I'm not very concerned about these. https://review.openstack.org/#/q/project:openstack/training-guides+status:o… We have been offered $500 worth of public clouds by Citicloud and free accounts on OVH, plus Dreamhost and HP have free trials. And we have trystack.org too, so we're well covered. Anything else I'm forgetting? See you tomorrow, stef

[openstack-community] [upstream] call for actions to attendants, teachers and and mentors
by Stefano Maffulli 12 May '15

12 May '15

Hello trainers, I'd like to pick your brain to finalize the call to action for the trainees in Vancouver. In past editions Loic had them start working before the session started and select bugs for them to work on. I think some of them found it difficult and didn't do it. It's a valuable exercise though and We can ask them to do it but I don't expect many of them to do it. On the other hand I'd like them to focus on setting up the basic for the dev environment. I'm drafting the message to send them on https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/upstream-letter using Loic's message as a base. Please review it and let me know by tomorrow what edits it needs. We have a trello board with all the participants names and details on https://trello.com/b/iuJab0VH/openstack-upstream-training-queue. I think the best way to use it is to wait until we meet in person in Vancouver: - we'll hide the no-show from that list - have each participant pick the bug and add it to their trello card - each participant picks a mentor (more than one participant per mentor) and sets date for online meeting and we all keep moving the cards to the appropriate lists. Hopefully this will give us more control and visibility of the results of the training. ACTION: spread the word that we need more bugs tagged Low Hanging Fruit. There aren't many. ACTION: review the slides! Many need some love. http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/community/2015-April/001126.html I have started https://review.openstack.org/#/q/status:open+project:openstack/training-gui… but need help. Anything else I'm forgetting? /stef
