@sergioarmgpl thanks for creating this, really looking forward to the event!

I've added each organizer to the slack channel. Let me know once you have more updates and need access to other things

[sergioarmgpl]

Sure, thanks for all 🙂😎

[xmulligan]

I've created the organizers-guatemala@kubernetescommunitydays.org forward for the organizers above.

If you are planning on having a social account, can you provide me access with it too?

[sergioarmgpl]

@xmulligan Thanks, I added Leo and Carlos as new organizers. About the social account, do you mean an email or the part to create the Twitter?

[xmulligan]

the twitter account, we already have access to the email :)

[xmulligan]

I've also added both Leo and Carlos to the slack channel and the email

[sergioarmgpl]

@xmulligan I created the Twitter is this https://twitter.com/kcdguatemala

[sergioarmgpl]

Do we have to complete this course? https://training.linuxfoundation.org/training/inclusive-open-source-community-orientation-lfc102/ I read some of Priyanka's tweet. @xmulligan

[sergioarmgpl]

I have this other question, if our event is free, do we need this part:

• Fiscal sponsor that will accept payments Or could you give an example about what I have to look for this requirement, maybe in my country refers to another thing. @xmulligan

[xmulligan]

@sergioarmgpl great, can you also provide me access to the twitter account?

Yes, you do need to take that course. It seems you are using the old issues template, but I'll add it above

the financial sponsor is for collecting money from sponsors

Let me know if you need anything else :)

[xmulligan]

I would also like to schedule a monthly check in with you until the event so we have a regular check in point where I can help you with any issues that have arisen. Obviously, you can also contact me or have a meeting outside that time too. Can you suggest a time that works for you?

[sergioarmgpl]

I think that 8AM GMT-6 works, but let me ask the other organizers. @xmulligan I sent you the password and user of our Twitter on the CNCF slack

[xmulligan]

Thanks I have received it. Let me know what time works to meet

[sergioarmgpl]

I think that I am the first one to finish the course.

[sergioarmgpl]

I think that 8AM GMT-6 works for me for the meetings @xmulligan

[xmulligan]

@sergioarmgpl sure, how about the last Wednesday of every Monday (starting on August 25th?)

[sergioarmgpl]

@xmulligan It works for me

[sergioarmgpl]

OReilly will provide us 5 ebooks for the event, Yalo is going to provide us some funds for the streaming with Streamyard, we are going to do the same as KCDSpain redirect Streamyard to Bevy

[racarlosdavid]

@sergioarmgpl I also finished the course

[leoaguilar97]

Hi! I finished the Inclusive Open Source Community Orientation course last week!

[sergioarmgpl]

Update: @xmulligan.

• I added myself as the CFP admin
• A third sponsor was confirmed Pending that some of the organizers finish the Community Orientation course.

[sergioarmgpl]

@xmulligan Can you add Emily to the organizers she is going to manage our social network accounts, she is the designer, her email is 202110524@farusac.edu.gt

[sergioarmgpl]

@xmulligan the CFP will be launch this Monday.

[xmulligan]

Glad to hear about the CfP! What do you need me to add Emily to?

[sergiopsyalo]

Please add her to the mailing list, because she will be in charge of the Twitter account. @xmulligan The twitter account uses our mailing list email :)

[xmulligan]

I've added her to the email :) Let me know if you need anything else

[xmulligan]

Awesome event covering both students and professionals with content in English and Spanish. I'm sure this inspired many people 🎊

[sergioarmgpl]

Nice experience doing the event, I have pending a blog post about it.

[xmulligan]
