Comment (by arma):
Ok, some conclusions from the mess that happened from this ticket:
A) There is a process for adding people to groups, but nobody knows the
process, and there's no plan for teaching anybody that there is a process,
so each person is going to fall into this trap until we fix that. Who
should lead the process of teaching our people about our processes? Is
that Erin? Is it a spot that is not filled currently?
B) Separate from the website in particular, we need to teach people about
how git works . In particular, the workflow where you get your own
personal version of a git repository, and make your own commits on it, and
then ask whoever manages the main git repository to examine and consider
merging your commits. We need to teach our new people about how git works
-- what is the right process for that, and who should be leading that
process? I am guessing it is not Erin, since I don't think Erin does or
knows git. But that said, maybe Erin still has a role in making sure the
teaching-about-git is on the master checklist, and that whatever the
teaching is, it's effective.
C) The website is not getting much attention lately, and those who
volunteer their time to maintain it are dropping out one by one because of
the perception that they're not appreciated. And this perception is
strengthened by the fact that we don't teach our new people about the
above two items. This lack of apparent prioritization is producing
problems in a variety of areas. How can we care more about on-boarding?
Other useful outcomes?
