mentioned that we need to solve at that FAD is the best way to on-board new
folks. I agree with you that a LATAM-based FAD would be a fantastic venue to
recruit and on-board new contributors, but the problem is we don't currently
have a good way to recruit and keep those contributors around on the design
team and we need to figure that part out first. Otherwise, we'll get new
recruits but won't have any way to manage them. :(
Lower cost suggestion.
1. I've only a basic knowledge about the groups aims / objectives.
Option: to link from each email, and from a group web page, to a clear
aims /objectives/ modus operandii for the group. Tell us what you do
and how.
2. Have clear 'current' objectives (we need a new graphic design for
X) somewhere, certainly posted to the list as they change.
Recruitment - I'm not much help here - but I could suggest posting on
some of the forums, i.e. seeking users, some of whom will have graphic
skills, and asking them to join? Perhaps on a 3 monthly basis?
