instead of redesigning tag generator it can be explained better

@ladissi please add the google drive folder link you want me to put the recording files in

ExperimentsInHonesty commented 2 years ago

@ladissi I put the recording and transcript into this folder

ExperimentsInHonesty commented 2 years ago

@ladissi I have uploaded the 3 sets of recordings/transcripts from today in this folder For the last recording which I made by myself for the FAQ, there is a link I reference, here it is http://civictechindex.org/join-index?tagsToAdd=civictechindex&value=yes

Here is the subheading text for Radical Collaboration: We must connect with people from different backgrounds, skills, abilities and thinking modalities to learn and share approaches to societal challenges in order to fulfil the potential of open source.

Also add one more item to the FAQ Q: What is Radical Collaboration? A: We must connect with people from different backgrounds, skills, abilities and thinking modalities to learn and share approaches to societal challenges in order to fulfil the potential of open source. By making visible the connections between our projects, we can all collaborate and build more efficiently, effectively and more humanely. Increasing access through transparency of information, tools and open invitations to participate is what defines Radical Collaboration.

[ ] #818
- Besides adding GitHub IDs what else needs to be done- [ ] #818

smsada commented 2 years ago

[ ] Levi's notes are on our drive and can be found in the folder '09 Team Transition'
- Confirm if these are the notes we needed so we could be ready for launch or if Bonnie was thinking of another document
[ ] Implementation of active inactive states and changes that need to be made #1076
- We do not save data about organizations and individual repos being active meaning that displaying active or inactive states on the Civic Tech Organizations page requires a new database and a new script that scrapes github when it sees that an organization is nearing inactive status. What would need to be done:
  - Store Repo Activity as Active vs Inactive and date updated
    - We are okay with the information not being up to date to the day, as long as it is active within our definition (6 months)
    - Discuss with Cynthia about implementation if this is what we want to do
  - Develop a scheduler to make API calls and check if organizations and/or repos are active
  - Our definition of 'Active Org' is at least 1 repo active meaning there is redundancy
[ ] Active and Inactive states are tightly defined making an In-active org but active repo unlikely
- Define when is an organization an inactive organization but active repo (assumption is when their organization no longer exists but there are individual contributors adding to repos)
- Discuss how much complexity we want to introduce with scraping sites to know if an organization is active
  - Can this be a post-MVP issue?
[ ] Back button issues on Civic Tech Organizations page
