I hope something like this will have a dedicated page on the website (https://solidproject.org/) and on the DEIT website. I especially like the one-on-one chat with a community member. If this is paired up with a buddy/mentor (idea shared before) this would be really cool! I would like to get involved on this part in one way or another. Ideas:

• work on the webpage
• collect links
• create a welcoming video
• create explanatory intro videos and upload on youtube (I host a podcast regularly uplaoded on youtube so maybe I can use some skills form there) -- for example: what repos are there - where to see the backlog (also generic stuff)
• implement a buddy/mentoring system
