Action items¶

• Reach out to EC & Kirstie Whitaker: What’s the current state of thinking about metrics for the Jupyter community?

  • https://ec.jupyter.org/#contacting-the-executive-council

• Jason: Confirm that the charter is ok to publish

• Matt: Open PR for charter to Jupyter governance page after Jason thumbs up. Remove the DEI charter. Open as draft.

  • Include in the title that we’re incorporating DEI into the Community Committee to try and avoid any emotional reaction about removing DEI charter. “Merge DEI and Community Building WG into new Standing Committee”. Or should we do it in multiple steps, starting with updating our charter, and months later remove DEI charter?

    • DECISION: Do it all at once, but do outreach. Post in the issue “We’re doing this! Thank you for your feedback!”

    • Post on Zulip.

    • PRESENT AT COMMUNITY MEETING. Rosio / April will be in charge of this.

  • Reference issue: jupyter/governance#293

• Matt: Link to charter on Team Compass (after published on Juptyer governance page)

• Matt: Page about community workshop program on team compass

• Lahari and Rosio will chat offline to prep for facilitating community call

Agenda & notes¶

• Last actions:

  • Lahari: Invite member of 8knot team to our next meeting. We’ll spend the first 30 minutes understanding how we can use 8knot.

  • What do we want to measure? Specific metrics we care about. And how to measure across entire community / subprojects.

  • Feeling uncomfortable hosting due to sickness.

    • Lahari will facilitate

• Community workshop status

  • LF and JupyterHub community have this covered! Nothing for us to do right now.

  • Lahari: How do we measure the impact/success of the workshops? Will the organizers of the workshop come up with a report or something once it’s over?

    • Does LF survey people?

    • The JupyterHub community will share a report-out afterwards to give us a sense of impact!

    • Jason: Here are our success measures (for the community workshops program as a whole)

      • Create a system with public documentation for current and future event series

      • Receive at least 3 high-quality proposals from the CFP

      • Host 3 events in 2025 with volunteer hosts in partnership with LF

      • Ensure blog posts are published from each event detailing strategic work and community building impact

      • Stay within the budget

• Initiatives

  • Didn’t have time, will get to it next time :)
