I started writing this a while ago and never got it fully formed. Rather than let it keep rotting in my drafts folder I wanted to share it and see if it made sense to anyone else.
Warning - rough edges ahead!
---
Conversations with several people have resulted in distilling the following idea:
= EasyFix
== Changing metadata
Modify the table that drives fedoraproject.org/easyfix that is located at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Easyfix
The table would now include two additional columns (optional)
Col 1 = existing reference to the issue tracker. We should consider adding gitlab.com support
Col 2 = existing point of contact
Col 3 = category of task (documentation, infrastructure, programming-Haskell, programming-Ruby, etc.)
Col 4 = SIG/WG/etc. this project is related too (Design, Council, KDE, etc.)
== Changing fedoraproject.org/easyfix
Today we show only two categories: Issues from Pagure/Github and Bugzillas
I believe those categories are not the right categories for consumers of the page. Using the new category (col 3) above, we would break things out by the kind of contribution. This would serve to let people browse related tasks more easily and to reduce the overwhelming nature of the current lists.
For BZs we are either going to have to guess based on BZ metadata or leave them lumped together.
= WCIDFF
WCDIFF should be extended to show the categories and groups appropriate for the various endpoints. This way the person who navigates WCDIFF has the option of reading a specific task they could work on right now, if they so desire.
= Marketing/Promotion
The categories give us the opportunity to promote our easyfixes as a great way to join or contribute in a targeted manner. This could come in the form of articles, tweets, or live conference appearances.
What do people think?
regards,
bex
Hello!
We had a short meeting to go over pending tasks and so on today. Most of
us hadn't done our homework, so I've just reassigned most of the tasks
to their respective people :(
I'll see you in two weeks time. Please keep an eye out for a few e-mails
regarding the rota and so on.

Hi,
We'd discussed the idea of taking turns to chair our bi-weekly meetings.
Can those that are interested in doing this please reply to this e-mail
so we can create a list and decide the order in which we take turns?
Chairing a meeting is really easy. It doesn't require anything special
at all. The chair needs to ensure that the agenda is ready, and then
needs to chase the rest of the party to show up (ping over IRC an hour
before the meeting etc.). One also gets badges for chairing meetings ;)
This wiki page explains how to run a meeting:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Meeting:Guide
So, I'll start the list here then. Please, join in :)
- Ankur Sinha "FranciscoD".
PS: you can start contributing by chairing and attending meetings.
Meetings are an excellent way to learn what teams are up to and where
one can start.
