Working Hours Documentation
This repo is for tracking activities that we work on during OSPOlogy Working Hours.
What are working hours?
Working Hours are primarily for doing cleanup on the various issues and PRs in the TODO Group GitHub organisation. We've found that if we don't regularly set aside time to do these tasks, they never get done.
Here is a list of things that we expect people to work during the WDA meetings. The list is sorted by TODO project contribution level, in descending order:
"I'm new" tasks
- 📩 Add OSPONews content for next month
- 🧑💻 Capture new OSPO Job Descriptions
- 📌 Add new tech & open source conferences to the 2022 list
- 🔭 Add new tools for Awesome OSS Management tooling list
- 🧭 Work on OSPO Mind Map structure
- 💚 Add new OSPOs or tooling to the OSPO Landscape
- 💬 Help with translations!
"I'm in a working group" tasks
- 📝 Work on WIP 2022 TODO Guides
- 📘 Work on WIP 2022 Whitepapers
"I have time and want to improve outdated TODO resources" tasks
- 📖 Improve OSPO 101 Courses (training) with more modules
- 🧩 Update old or create new OSPO Case Studies
"I have long term experience with TODO repo and GH project" tasks
- ⚙️ Clean up access to repos
- ✅ Resolve outstanding pull requests from the following repos:
ospo-landscapetodogroup.orgospologyrepo linter - ✍️ Fix README files (like this one!)
Schedule and meetings
Work days occur once a month and scheduled for two hours.
WORK DAYS ARE SCHEDULED FOR:
| 🌏 Meeting | 💬 Facilitator | 🕙 Day & time |
|---|---|---|
| AMER | Duane | Second Wednesday of the month at 16:30 PM UTC |
| EMEA & APAC | Ana | Second Monday of the monthat 10:00 AM UTC |
Calendar invites
Calendar invites are sent via TODO Mailing list (Community and General Member) and notified at TODO Slack general channel.
Also, we provide an ICS calendar file for both, AMER and EMEA & APAC, to easily import the meeting series in any agenda at todogroup.org/community.
Process
1) Read this README documentation 2) Choose the section you wish to work on today (guides, ospology, whitepapers, etc) 3) Go to the dedicated repo and check the open issues available
Typically people will send event reminders via Slack and email in advance of the event, so you can start thinking of what you'd like to work on.
On the work day itself, we all gather in the Zoom meeting and touch base, sharing what we plan to work on and asking anyone whether they'd like some help with their chosen tasks. We hang out on the Zoom (creating breakout rooms if needed), typing away on our tasks, asking questions, and generally hanging out productively.

Working Hours are a great way to see and make friends in TODO while also contributing to the community. It's very casual but also productive. Come be a part of the fun!
