Hello all,<br><br> At FOSDEM, during the 2nd day of Womoz workshop we
discussed about creating a channel of community leaders in order to help
<br>new people to get involved in the project (to help them find the
appropriate project, area, etc.). Since then I've been working with <br>
Delphine and other people to develop this idea into a more concrete
concept.<br> As you probably saw from Delphine's last call notes, we
have been discussing also with David (MoFo) to see how we can <br>integrate
the existing contribute group (<a href="http://mozilla.org/" target="_blank">mozilla.org</a> Get Involved page) with the newcomers
channel.<br>
<br> I think that the next step would be to identify active community
members (and community leaders) who may help on building this<br>"newcomers"
channel. Then, we can work together on searching for the best methods
to offer answers and guidance to people <br>
interested in contributing. <br> This is currently happening on marketing list as there are some active
marketing contributors helping the newcomers.<br> Anyway, I would love
to have feedback on this and start a discussion here, for the moment.<br><br>
