Purpose of the Goal
The SUMO SIG is there to get new contributors into SUMO, the members of that SIG will be our own SUMO reps. Michelle defined the roles within SUMO, but we also need to define what to do with our SUMO reps, how they can be the most useful.
With the SUMO reps getting new community members will be a 2 stage process:
- The SUMO reps attracting people to SUMO.
- New volunteers starting to contribute to SUMO
Currently we only have processes for the second part, when people are already interested and approach us by mail. We need the processes for the first part in this case, and that's the purpose of this goal.
Some of the things that need to be organized and put into place:
- Reps attending locale tech events
- Printing flyers for the booth
- Getting SUMO swag to reps
- There needs to be a plan for how to transition people in to SUMO, what the reps are supposed to do when they have somone interested etc.
- We need regular meetings with the reps, online and physical, to boost the team building and to learn about issues, exchange experience among them etc.
