OEP-1 could be more clear about announcing #493

Open robrap opened 1 year ago

robrap commented 1 year ago

The main section that notes how to announce an OEP is here: https://open-edx-proposals.readthedocs.io/en/latest/processes/oep-0001.html#step-3-review-with-arbiter. It doesn't have a clear process for announcing merges, which is especially important for OEP updates that didn't necessarily go through a wider review.

@robrap what is the problem you're experiencing? Do you have a suggestion for how we could resolve the problem?

If you're looking for a push notification that something has merged, would a follow up post on the OEP thread in Discourse or another post in Slack that announces the merge suffice? If the latter, we could just set up an auto post connection between merges in this repo with a slack room.

I personally started watching the repo, so I personally don't have an issue. That said, if decisions are being made/updated, I think it would be good for the community to see that in anyway that works for people. A slack room might work well.

All this being said, feel free to move forward however you think best. Thank you.

I don't think it's unreasonable to add a section like what we have in DEPR about announcing - https://open-edx-proposals.readthedocs.io/en/latest/processes/oep-0021-proc-deprecation.html#removed - I'll assign this to myself to address in the coming weeks.
