Brainstorm for New Survey: Contribution Experience #42

Open AnaMMedina21 opened 2 weeks ago

AnaMMedina21 commented 2 weeks ago

Thinking we should find out what folk's current experience is with contributing, this will let us know how we can make it better and help us recruit new members

Will fill out more details later

One area where this applies and is probably the lowest barrier to entry is docs, so I would love thoughts from @open-telemetry/docs-approvers on this!

We might want to tap some SIG maintainers here too. Are there any SIGs that we know of that need some extra contribution love? This may be a question for @open-telemetry/governance-committee?

svrnm commented 2 weeks ago

Please take a look at https://github.com/open-telemetry/community/pull/2162 as well, since I suggested creating a SIG for contributor experience, so this could be a coordinated effort eventually. This should not stop you from creating such a survey and I agree (very selfishly) that docs is a good starting point

I agree -- the survey is a good idea to have, and we could even consider having it regularly. We have a list of contributors to the project via devstats, so we could target people from that list.

avillela commented 2 weeks ago

I like the idea of doing a survey regularly. Can you point me to how we can find the contributors via devstats?

jpkrohling commented 2 weeks ago

This could be a good start:
