Greetings. As part of the effort to improve IRC support, there were 2 ideas discussed at several of our last meetings (Thursdays at 15:30UTC in #fedora-meeting, everyone welcome): First, the idea of "targeted help". Basically have an expert or two who knows a lot about a package or group of packages that would advertise being available via IRC for some specific time period (an hour or two) and answer questions on that software. Folks with problems related to that area could come and see if they could get help solving those problems. The end user hopefully gets their problem solved, and the developer gets an chance to help someone and also some important information about how the software is being used or pitfalls to correct or bugs to fix. We could advertise a schedule of these sessions or office hours. Secondly, the idea of end user targeted classroom sessions. Someone who knows a lot about an area could spend an hour session guiding a classroom of folks through using some software or how to help Fedora in some area, or show off some new feature that will be in the next release. This might need/use something like the fedora VOIP system or screen/whiteboard software in addition to IRC. Depending on the material this might take more setting up than the targeted help sessions. So, the reason I am posting here is that I am looking for interested maintainers/developers who would be up for doing one or both of these things. Feel free to mail me or catch me on irc if you are interested in helping out or running one of these and helping to form the process. ;) Comments/Questions/Ideas welcome. kevin
