I think we can make a difference if we plan it well.

As I said to Sreekanth, the idea is to organize a marketing call focused

on India during the next couple of weeks, to start organizing marketing

activities. I will follow up early next week with a couple of timeslot

proposals.

Hello,

Sreekanth +1 for your idea.

Mike, I was one of the host Mozilla Sprint 2018. We have 10-15 dedicated

people in our community. They are are interested in opensource. I will

engage them if you could start these type of initiative on l10n, QA,

Document writing etc.

Thank You

Dear Mike,

Yes. I was referring to the similar events. Having this sprint as a group

activity in different locations would encourage more people to contribute.

Having some goodies - even virtual like small certificate of appreciation

-   softcopy would do - would encourage more and students to participate in
    
    such events.
    

We can have our hack fests and Sprints. We need to encourage more and more

students and young people to contribute. It also should help them to learn

and add some value to their life.

It will be great if we have good collaboration with development team and

if they could classify the issues that could be take up in Sprints/Hackfest

into different levels and mark them as Beginner (Easy Hack), Medium, Expert

(or 5 levels) according to their wish.Also it could be prioritized and

marked as urgent, non-urgent, etc. Provide only those issues similar to

the way we present in Sprint week page.

Share this information across different social media and urge the sprint

teams to join us online on one or two days across the world. In case of

Mozilla they used Gitter and ether pad for collaboration.

Most important thing is that if the contributors/sprinters have something

to take hope as a token of appreciation would encourage lots of people to

join. Even stickers, softcopy of certificate would be a good option.

We can take this up. Is it possible to get contact of the people who

organised the hack fests in past?

Sincerely,

Sreekanth V K

We can have Sprint like concepts for the Libre Office projects alone

with appropriate promotion.

Thanks for sharing your experience! It sounds a bit like the hackfests

that we have done in the past, albeit with a broader focus. We're also

doing things like this:

sprint-week/

The main thing is finding the time to organise and run them, so if

anyone has ideas and wants to help out, we'll support you to the best of

our capabilities :-)

Cheers,

Mike
