Open Stack

Tom - I'm a supporter of the concept and have read through the etherpad. Beyond uniting people of like interests, it's not clear to me what the purpose/goal is for adding more user groups? 

My thought is that we would want to build some other requirements/guidance into the process to make sure we're achieving the desired goal. Like would we want the user group to host a session during the design summit to provide input? Or develop blue prints to address requirements for the segment? OR?

Thanks
Carol

Subject: [openstack-community] "official" user group process

Hi all,

As Stefano mentioned, we will soon be launching the new user group portal to make it easier to find group information and events.

Rather than having a long list on the wiki, we will now have individual pages for the user groups - searchable through a map.

To raise the visibility of active and established groups, we'd like to give them some kind of "official" status and potentially a special logo.

Stef, the ambassadors and myself have written up a quick draft on a process that we might follow to manage the way user groups become "Official".

You can find it on the etherpad at:

https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/OfficialUserGroupProcess

please let us know what you think.

Regards,


Stef & Tom
