Notes
Review schedule of developer meetings, forums, scrum standups, etc.
- How do we grow community involvement beyond "the regulars"?
- More than just developers but all engineering roles (devs, testers, BA's)
- A weekly, high-bandwidth hour for anyone involved or interested in OpenMRS Development to share ideas & "move the needle forward"
- What would increase participation by more people?
- Introductions? (Stopped when we switched to 1 hour length)
- Is a telephone/web conference the right medium?
- Less interactive / more synchronous / more presentation-style
- Many of our contributors have poor connection quality
- Most open source projects have their regular/operational meetings via IRC
- What are the alternative ways to communicate/participate?
- OpenMRS University for Q&A, training (This has very poor/low attendance!!!)
- If we're trying to share ideas (present, etc.) is a synchronous medium the right one? We're limiting the audience (& ideas) by forcing real-time participation.
- >50% of the attendees right now are people at Regenstrief Institute. That doesn't reflect the profile of our project.
- A few key thoughts from M. Downey
- Most people don't have full time jobs to spend contributing to OpenMRS and can't regularly participate at given times
- Most people don't have 100 MBps connections
