Tracking of NDA signatures

Hi everyone,

The document is ready now.

Hi @Guilhermems, the KDE e.V. board in collaboration with some community members is working on maintaining and building some of the relationships mentioned here.
Oct 24 2020
If other solutions don't work, another option is to use a shared text file on share.kde.org, and just list there the posts. It might be a bit easier than editing phabricator tasks.
Oct 4 2020
If there were any templates for posters designed, it would be good to have the editable files uploaded somewhere for future use.
Sep 21 2020
The e.V. supporters have been informed and we can now share this publicly.

Looks good to me, should do the job fine! =)
I've already sent the CfP in the community and devel mailing lists, no response so far. We should probably bump it closer to the deadlines.

For some reason I can't tag him on mobile, but Nicolas Fella can probably offer insights on the number of contributors, repos and commits. I've sent him a message to check this task.
Sep 25 2019
Snail mail sent, please let me know once it arrives to close this task.

Here's an idea off the top of my head:
I just sent it via email.

How about devising a promo plan for the new goals? They will have been decided and announced by Monday.
Aug 12 2019
Added Ubucon, as Diogo Constantino from the organizers team reached out to me inviting KDE to attend their annual event.
Aug 5 2019
I see that so far the a discussion has revolved around the technical side of things. How about thinking a bit more on how we plan to reach out to these organizations? Can we form a strategy and start building collaborative relationships with them?
Jul 21 2019
Off the top of my head, here's a suggestion on rephrasing this one: "Improve documentation and presentation/communication of KDE's work and structure"
Jul 19 2019
@skadinna I think it's worth mentioning Google Season of Docs and describe how KDE's participation could possibly contribute towards this goal: https://developers.google.com/season-of-docs/
Jul 14 2019
Thanks @skadinna for the reminder email.

@jbbgameich just a friendly request for us lurkers that like to keep an eye on Plasma Mobile development: would it be possible to add screenshots to the applications you host on invent so we can take a peak into how they look? =D thanks, and keep up the awesome work!

As the sprint in May did not gather enough participants, we will have to move it to a later date. I will let you know once more info is available.

Onboarding
Mozilla is successful in building a community and onboarding new members. For KDE onboarding is now also a goal, so we might be able to learn from Mozilla'a experience here.
Plasma Mobile uses a fork of Mozilla's whatcanidoformozilla.org website for the Find your way page.

closing this as it is now done. If we end up switching to gitlab, we should remember to reintroduce a similar tag.

Hey everyone, it took a while but I am thrilled to announce that we have finally found a place to host us in Athens. It will be available for the 3 out of 4 weekends of May 2019.
Feb 17 2019
We should definitely list the #kde-welcome channel and if possible highlight it so it stands out. It's a new one created as part of the onboarding goal and it suits the purpose of this page perfectly. =)
Jan 19 2019
Would it make sense to split this list to FOSS related and non-FOSS related events?
Dec 30 2018
Looks great to me, keep it up! =)
Nov 25 2018
FYI, I've asked @bcooksley and he was kind enough to create the workboard immediately, so everyone can now easily view all the pending junior jobs.
Nov 18 2018
Do it and let us know when it's out! =) It's a great way to publicize this task, share your experience and hopefully inspire new contributors.
Great to see the interest for this sprint increasing!
Nov 3 2018
Judging from the responses so far, it seems like a good candidate would be Berlin/Germany, the week before or after FOSDEM.

Hi @bdhruve , before responding to your suggestions, I would like to be sure if you are referring to this guide: https://community.kde.org/Plasma/DeveloperGuide
Sep 30 2018
Ι sent a reminder around a week ago to the people I've been in talks with here in Athens to see if they can provide the place after all but I haven't received any answer yet, other than the acknowledgement that they are indeed late to respond.
Sep 25 2018
Done, thanks for your work @acrouthamel!

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond here @acrouthamel . Hopefully as we gather more responses we will be able distinguish some common themes among newcomers' feedback.

There's a minor typo in the drop down "Kontact" menu on the top bar, Akregator is misspelled as Akreagtor.
This is indeed a good idea, I added it as a subtask of T8712.

Hi @dkazakov, it's great that you are interested and I'm sure your experience would be valuable.
Unfortunately I can't help this time, but here's the announcement for Applications 18.04 that can be used as a template for the structure:
