This page provides guidance to people aiming to produce the most useful Monday meeting update from their area of the project.
The Monday meeting has 3 primary goals:
# Showcase the breadth of what happens in the project
# Focus community attention on specific things which need feedback or help
# Answer questions raised by the community
Secondarily, we also hope to:
# Increase community cohesion and cross-project awareness
# Ensuring openness and transparency
# Hand out [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whuffie whuffie]
Therefore, please consider the following:
# Do you need to give an update?
It's OK if a particular area does not have an update on some or even most weeks. We still believe you are working hard :-)
What you plan to say should be one or more of the following:
# Encouraging
# Informative
# Motivating
Encouraging: tell people about cool stuff that has happened. Use this category sparingly.
Informative: answer questions you know the community has about what is going on in your area of the project.
