Tech Skills Assessment

[Barry Rafkind]

Thanks, Dave, for taking on the volunteer coordinator role! The Tech Skills Assessment is a great idea! However, currently, the only way to know about it is to read through group threads whose titles are unrelated to it.

The assessment should be easily found both by existing and new volunteers. Therefore, I propose that we add a link to it at the top of our Google group's intro. And it would be great if there's a way to prompt new members to our Slack account to fill it out as well.

Thanks for your suggestions, Nathan. We are currently creating a repository that will contain a wiki and other relevant documents for contributing to the campaign's technical efforts. In the meanwhile, if you'd like to get started contributing, please fill out our brief Tech Skills Assessment <http://goo.gl/forms/1rwP1lOjbU>. It will help us get to know you and how to reach you so that we can put you to work on our most urgent needs.

Github sounds good to me, we'll figure out process improvements as we go along. Perhaps we can document this process (a 'How to Contribute' section on the README ?), and update as needed.

By the way, I'm a front-end developer, so I'm open to being assigned front-end (HTML/CSS/Javascript) tasks. I'm not sure where front-end work is needed most right now, but I'd love to help.

Hey guys,

Aaron Lifshin here. 

I'm COO of the campaign.

Welcome to the group.

We have an Asana where we track a lot of the day to day issues.  However, for the Open Source piece I think it makes sense to track issues in Git Hub.  The Asana tasks are often very urgent like day-to-day, hour-by-hour things.

We can filter out more long-term things such as infrastructure improvements to GitHub.  I believe I put one such example tasks against the pledge_service repo.

Does sound good as a starting approach?  I'm open to suggestions on process and trying and iterating to find whatever works best.  Also open to giving Asana access to people who want it.

All of this has been stood up very quickly, so apologies for the messy 

And thank you in advance for all your help on this important issue!

Looks like the Github account is here: https://github.com/Lessig2016

It'd be great to have a specific tech call or a wiki page to go over the architecture, define a collaboration process, and potentially the roadmap. I'm guessing we're doing issue tracking in Github?

Is there an Issues list with bugs & features?

Is there a code base I can start reading & comprehending now in order to prep myself for taking on Issues?

Is there a Best Practices guide for team development with Google Application Engine? This StackOverflow question is from 2010.

Thanks for your suggestions. I just needed Owner access to the group to update the welcome message. Take a look now and let me know if you have any other ideas. Cheers!

Great! This group has 95 members. How many responses have we received so far to the skills assessment?
