Thursday MicroProfilers,
2018 brings eforms to help us gather specific data from the active MP Community across its multiple projects.
eForms will enable active &/or not yet involved individuals to reach out directly to anyone across MP projects, facilitating a healthy communication & collaboration that aligns to further MP goodness.
Task for Leads: John and Kevin— can you please re-direct eform to the active participants on the below projects? It is easy to miss content via MPgforum, thanks in advance for re-directing this thread from prompt action. :)
Currently, there are 8 technical working groups:
- JSR Config
- Fault Tolerance
- JWT
- AuthHealth
- Metrics
- OpenAPI
- Open Tracing
- REST Client
Many of the projects above also have video hangouts occurring weekly.
Important: 2018 MP calendars are being updated to use Eclipse Zoon tool.
Recommendation for anyone interested in joining the projects above is to start joining the project calls, remember to fill out technical form & enjoy MP OSS ride!
Calendar link post it:
Lastly, eforms will be added to MP.io and will also need to be added to https://wiki.eclipse.org/MicroProfile:
Thus far, 4 forms have been created by the Mktg Team, your feedback welcomed!
- Technical;
- Marketing;
- Speaking engagement announcements
- Sponsorship
Cheers,
Kevin Sutter

Hi Amelia,
I know you brought this up at the last MP community call, but I'm still a little confused on the intent or benefit of these eforms. How do you expect them to be used? We already have two sites that indicate who is involved with MP:
http://microprofile.io/contributors
https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/technology.microprofile/who
And, with other projects that I am involved with, if I need more information, I view their github account, or linkedin, or twitter... I don't ever remember seeing or requiring the information requested via these eforms. How would you integrate this eform information with the existing "who's who" pages above? I don't think we have any control over the content or format of the Eclipse pages, but maybe it could be tied into the microprofile.io contributors page?
You mentioned the video hangouts that these individual components already participate in. Many (most?) of them also have gitter irc channels, which is a great way to immediately touch base with the key players of each technology.
Just trying to figure out the benefit of these eforms before we push them onto the wider community. If everybody else is on board with this already and I just haven't been paying attention, then let me know. What problem are we trying to solve?
One other clarification concerning the use of the zoom account... There is only one zoom account per top-level project. So, all of Technology (which MicroProfile is part of) shares this single zoom account. I'm not sure if we can hog its use with all of our community hangouts. Let's test it out first with our bi-weekly calls. And, if we like it, we can start to ask for more timeslots. I just don't want to bombard the Technology PMC with all of our requests until we have a chance to test it out. Thanks.

Happy Monday Kevin,
I will happily answer your questions posted via this thread and any new questions the MP Community might have about the use of eforms tomorrow via MP bi-monthly hangout. :)
