Hi there from Los Angeles :)

I'm not going to be able to join tomorrow's meeting. I do have one reservation about moving away from an inbox for info@pyladies.com, which is that it may alienate folks who are unfamiliar w/ GitHub open issues and how to utilize that as a forum.

I'll be looking for the meeting notes if they get shared out. Thanks for all you do!

@godsylla the problem we are suffering from is not enough volunteer hours to manage info@pyladies.com. @godsylla it would be really helpful to get input on this. Could you perhaps give us more input prior to the meeting tomorrow?

Right now only @elainewong and @Mariatta are managing the inbox, and these are two PyLadies who are already quite committed in other Python spaces.

What is your thought on some documentation and perhaps a PyLadies Intro to Git online set of workshops?

Mariatta commented 4 years ago

In https://github.com/pyladies/pyladies/issues/428 I've described all the problems with managing info@ mailbox. I've proposed several solutions. Please share feedback there. One reason for proposing GitHub Issue is that it is the easiest way to set up from our perspective.

I think a quick + dirty documentation on how to submit a Git issue is a good idea. Also, maybe Marietta and Elaine can weigh in on most commonly asked questions? Does it make sense to help draft an FAQ?

Sometimes I'll get forwarded emails that go to the info@pyladies.com inbox as opposed to direct to la@pyladies.com. So for example, perhaps in the FAQ, we can have a place on "how to contact your local chapter" or something to that effect.

Yup, please see: https://github.com/pyladies/pyladies/issues/428#issuecomment-545494464

Mariatta commented 4 years ago

@godsylla I've started the FAQ here: https://github.com/pyladies/info/pull/1/files I mentioned how to reach local chapters in the FAQ.

Please review the PR and provide feedback. Thanks.
