Gist about how-to ask for speakers

[Jorge Andres Tafur Quiñones]

Hi guys,

Regarding the topic i asked on the July 7th (2020) Community Live Hangout about promoting the visibility of MP Speakers (and MP in general on local groups), some of the conclusions presented were:

   - There is room for easing the process for a JUG to invite speakers

   - There are resources available for the speakers themselves (such as tags and slides available on G drive)

   - MP is willing to promote said speakers on the twitter account

The starting proposal is to write a gist targeted to JUGs (or people wanting a speaker in general)  with a "how-to ask for speakers" and make it public,  on the other side... perhaps also a section addressed to speakers compiling the links to the resources available to them, this one in order to encourage the use of the slides, tags and MP branding/logos.

So.. my questions (which are probably addressed to Amelia ) is.. am i on the right track? how do i start? and where to put the gist?

By the way and just for heads-up: The title of the recording uploaded to youtube "MicroProfile Live Hangout, July 7 2000" has a typo on the year.

Thanks,

Jorge Andrés Tafur.
