We've got so many different education related ideas floating around, that it will be extremely helpful to have someone on the board who can run point and bring the area into focus into a cohesive overarching vision, both inwardly and outwardly. We've a real need to get a handle on contributor training in a very wide sense. Not just how to train people for our own immediate needs (and we do need to do that), but also how open source is used in traditional classroom situations so people gain experience with the codebase, as well as how to teach the methodology and best practices of open source development I'm hoping Chris can be that person. Not to put pressure on him or anything, but its his ball to drop, his vase to shatter, his dogteam to lead onto a thin sheet of ice and then plunge into the icy river below...etc..etc. -jef _______________________________________________ fedora-advisory-board mailing list fedora-advisory-board@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-advisory-board
