Open Stack

Amrith,

This is a separate program from outreachy.  Typically outreachy is more of
an internship.  This program is supposed to be more of a "we meet for an
hour once a week to go over some questions" or "I'm stuck on what to work
on next, can you suggest a few things".  Something more lightweight for the
mentors and mentees.

Thanks for noticing the links.  One should've pointed to
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxtM4AiszlEyVkEtdktmWjBPN3c/view.  We do
have a wiki page for mentoring where we're listing the different types of
mentoring, so if projects have links for newcomers, you can add them here:
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Mentors  We're debating how to best lay out
the page right now, but eventually we'll move it to a more permanent place
than a wiki.
Thanks!

Emily,

Is this mentoring program in any way related to Outreachy[1] or is that a
different program altogether?

Your email says, "people to the guidelines (here<
https://docs.google.com/document/d/10ZJz0oX_V944o84xe-l67zvy2kf1RyCzpudU2fTlDOA
> and here<
https://docs.google.com/document/d/10ZJz0oX_V944o84xe-l67zvy2kf1RyCzpudU2fTlDOA/edit
>) and". Both of those appear to be links to the same document.

Thanks,

Subject: [openstack-dev] [PTLs][all][mentoring] Mentors needed in specific
technical areas


Hi,
The lightweight mentoring program sponsored by the Women of OpenStack has
really taken off, and we have about 35 mentees looking for technical help
that we don't have mentors for. We're asking for help from the PTLs to
announce the mentoring program in team meetings then direct people to the
guidelines (here<
https://docs.google.com/document/d/10ZJz0oX_V944o84xe-l67zvy2kf1RyCzpudU2fTlDOA
> and here<
https://docs.google.com/document/d/10ZJz0oX_V944o84xe-l67zvy2kf1RyCzpudU2fTlDOA/edit
>) and signup form<
https://openstackfoundation.formstack.com/forms/mentoring> if they're
interested.

Mentors should be regular contributors to a project, with an interest in
helping new people and about 4 hours a month for mentoring. They do not
have to be women; the program is just sponsored by WoO, we welcome all
mentees and mentors.

These are the projects/areas where we especially need mentors:

     *   Cinder
     *   Containers
     *   Documentation
     *   Glance
     *   Keystone
     *   Murano
     *   Neutron
     *   Nova
     *   Ops
     *   Searchlight
     *   Telemetry
     *   TripleO
     *   Trove
If you have any questions you can contact me, or ask on openstack-women
where the mentoring committee hangs out.
Thanks!
