 Hi Jo-Marc. Hi Alyssa. How are you? I'm doing good. How's your wife? Is she better? She's better. She's back to school, but despite, although it was a mild case, the branches are still heavy, so if you're not protected, this can be really nasty. I hope you didn't have people in your surrounding that got sick. No, no. There were people that died from COVID, but we're good so far. Okay, not too bad. When a year ago I saw my neighbor coming back from hospital, he was crawling back. So we said, well, then people don't come back, so that experience. It's rough. Yeah, it's life. I would not have expected two years ago to go through such an event, a worldwide event. Right, right. And it makes me, it makes me like really question, like something that is so, like you can't see it, but yet it's so powerful that it can wipe out so many people, right? Quickly, so fast. And without us being prepared or it comes out of blue sky. Yeah, yeah, what a shock. So Marc says he's running late. And let me see, I'll share, see if I can share my screen, share screen. I always battle too much. Yeah. And I love the picture you have behind you. Each time it's a pleasure to see. Oh, thank you so much. I stay in here all day so I figure I get something that's that kind of keep me in here, and that colorful thing helps. It looks like for some reason I cannot share my screen. I have all these error messages that pops up so I don't know but let me I'm going to put this in the chat window. Let me see if I can open it. Yeah. At least I can open it. So this works. Where is my window being doing several things at the same time. Which is not. I understand. Okay. Okay, here we are. Yeah. So, I think with us here we can get started as a market that's okay. And then for me. Yeah. Okay, so I'll take the first bullet item so Jenkins is the way status. We're still writing stories. We are working on what were stories. These are user stories that they that the Jenkins users, they submit how they're using Jenkins the benefits that they get out of Jenkins the values received. So we put that it's kind of like a mini case study. So we're still writing those we're still collecting them and in return we are still sending people T shirts as a thank you for submitting their stories. So we decided to do because we have so now we have so many stories is that we did we created a map and if you go on. You see where you go on this link so I'm going to give you the link is. Is it on the main site. No, it's not. It has its own site. I opened Jenkins is the way. Oh, here you go and if you click if you go all the way on top and then there's there isn't there isn't a map so if you put like a slash on the the URL Jean Mark, if you put a slash map. MAP and see what that does. Oh, there we go. Yeah. So if you click on one of those icons. You'll see a link that pops up what people say about it and if you want to read more about it there's a link that you can click on takes you directly to the story, but the goal here was just to give us a visual where Jenkins is and what people are saying about Jenkins on a global map. So that was the intention there. Yeah, so I, I haven't done anything with regards to promoting this so that's on my next things to do. I'm going to blog. Post a blog, and then we'll also have CDF help us to promote this and share this with a wider audience as well. So that is that and then you click on. If you click on, is it home. If you click on home. On the top bar you go up the black bar. A little bit over to your right these. Or user stories user stories I'm sorry yeah, you click on user stories. It's next to the map that the black bar yep you're almost there go up a little go up, up more up more it's in that black bar and it's into your left. It was my left but yeah there we go. Oh there okay on the black. Yeah, yeah you click on that. And you'll see the dates we're still posting stories and those are all the stores that we have collected. And as of this year. So it's a lot of stories that sharing about Jenkins yeah. Yeah so if you click on one of them ill, you can read about it and you know see what the challenges people face and how they use Jenkins to solve those challenges. Yeah, and they'll give us a quote on why they left Jenkins. Okay. Yeah. So, so we are about my guess is around 60 people that answered. We have, oh we got a couple of hundred people that submitted their stories, but we've posted this is a over 100 stories that we have posted. Yeah, I see that here so they're about six a page yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, so that's with Jenkins is the way that I owe status. And then let me see will go to the next item on the agenda. Okay, so I'll skip. I'll skip marks item, and I'll go down to the upcoming events and planning. Okay, so I have reached out to Faustum. I have reached out to the organizers, and they do not have the plans for the stand yet for Faustum. So they said to circle back in December. So I will do that I'll circle back in December. Just to make sure that we secure a virtual booth for Jenkins. I want to work with you on the content that we want to have on that on our site. Right. Yeah. And I know that Olivier has a dev room so we will try to get some Jenkins talks in there. And perhaps some, if CDF has some talks that's relevant then we can definitely get them to submit some talks there as well. So last year and this is, I think this is common in a lot of the virtual conferences that we have now, Jean-Marc, is that there's low attendance to the booth. In these virtual events right. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, you know, if you can think of anything that we can do to get people to the booth. Please do share. I think sending swag out is, oh, it's a hairball. So, yeah, it's, it can be expensive and shipping can take a long time. Yeah, we don't have the effect also that being at the booth is is rewarded and that you can start a conversation. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. What is generally done in these virtual booths. The virtual booth. Yeah, we usually have somebody from Jenkins staffing the booth, you know, people come and ask questions, then, then we have our experts to answer the question. And I think we also have like, I forget last year, Olivier had, I believe it was a video. I'm not sure I have to go back and check. Yeah. Video or some kind of posters. Yes, definitely we have a we have poster for how people can contribute to the project. We have that and then we share some of our case stories as case user stories as well. Could we or could we their form of posters or things like that mention that we're going to submit for she codes Africa or Google summer code and these kind of things because this can attract. Yeah, people. Yes. And, and is, is a way to attract traffic. Yeah. And start a conversation on that one. Preaching for my church. I like it. I like it. But at least give a positive feedback or mention it as being a positive contribution. But also to attract candidates or, or so I have no clue how a virtual booth looks like. I can send you the link. I'll actually I'll add. I'll look for it and then I will link it to this document. Right. Okay, and I don't know it what form. It is swag. I'm with my limited experience. I'm not sure it's good idea. Yeah, share your own, your. Yeah. stickers stickers does pretty well at foster stickers. This is a good idea. Yeah, okay. And this you can stick in an envelope. It's just to work. Right. I'll look into the logistics of this. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. So we talk about, yeah. Okay. So Boston will be in person in 2023. That's cross fingers. Yep. Yes. It's mainly because travel restrictions are so complicated. Right. Uncertain. Right. And the fact that it's taking place during the winter month. That's when every, a lot of people are sick. Yeah. That's cross fingers indeed. And then a scale. Oh, so Mark and I, so in the past Kosuke and Tyler, and I, we usually attend scale. So scale is an open source conference here in California. It's located in Los Angeles. And it takes place usually in beginning of. Or towards the end of February, beginning of March. Yep. So they will do this in person next year. So the plan is that we will mark will host a Jenkins pipeline. Training training. Yeah. Yeah. So we will do that unless marketing tells us that we can't because of budgeting, but I think right now we can. And then we will also have a booth. So Mark, Mark and I, we usually staff the booth. At scale as well. Okay. And then the next item is the advocacy budget items. Yeah. So she code Africa contribution. That budget will come out of marketing. So. Sasuke is aware of it. So she, she has it on her radar to support this event. Okay. As well as the internship for the Linux foundation. Yep. So. So that looks good. Yeah. I have a budget for next year as well. I have budget for swag. As well as like our contributor summit at DevOps world. So DevOps world will be in person next year. And we will be in person next year. But we will not have a contributor appreciation event. And that usually job market takes place after the conference, like in the evening, that's where we, we do that are networking, you know, just a lot of eating and drinking and just getting to know our contributors better and just connect. So we probably will not do that next year, but we will do that next year. Okay. Okay. Yeah. And then Google summer of code. I believe we are still interested in doing that. I think that that program is doing well. So I will look into that. In the past. Yeah. And try to understand what is the timeline. Yeah, for that. And what we need to do with what time. Right. And I think it's the same for she codes Africa. Yeah. Having budgeted is already the first step. But we need to be need to be sure that we have. The timeline under control. I thought triggering a brainstorm meeting on, on that just to. To start somewhere we need to find. Mentors we need to find subjects we need to probably fill some paperwork for these organizations. Yeah. Let me take up some old documents and. Yeah, you and I can, we can take a look at it. From there. Because I currently have no idea where, where we're getting at. Yeah. Yeah. Yep. I'll, I'll dig, I'll dig it up. All right. I think so that is all that I have. Just anything that you want to cover John Mark. No, I don't have anything. Anything else. There's just a subject that I'm thinking about. But. Let me think more on that. What kind of. Measurements do we have. About the results. Of the advocacy and outreach. So. Okay. That's a good question. So they, it's, it's a long shot question and, and, but something I believe we, we should start thinking on is. Can we find some kind of metrics that would help us to see. What is the effect. Of the initiatives we do. So I believe there is. Now, I don't exactly know, is it going to trigger. More traffic on the Jenkins.io. A site. Are we going to. We can measure how many people came to the virtual booth, but is that going to work. When we do it. Life. It's very confused in my mind, but I'm just raising the point. What kind of data can we use to support. These initiatives. So I go to. To think about that. See what kind of, but I'm, I'm fairly new to that. So wondering, trying to, to find some quantitative. Quantitative. Information. And. What we did, but also what is the result. I don't know. I don't know if it's feasible. But this is always something we should have on the back of our mind. Okay. Okay. I think that's good. And I think. Going forward as a team. We can definitely define. Our, what our goals are. What, what, what's our, what our metrics are. Yeah. Yeah. So we can definitely do that as we start planning. And see what. I have no idea. But this is always something we should have on the back of our mind. Yeah. Yeah. Otherwise I don't have any other reflection or. Okay. Well, great feedback. So we'll leave it as that. And then we'll reconvene in another two weeks. Last point. Yeah. We, we would like to have talks for. Foss them is the first coming. Are we going to do or wouldn't be a good idea to promote or. Mention it or, or. To create some. Some attention. Yeah. Yeah. I think that's a good point on that. For instance, on the. The dev list. Developer lists or. Another medium say, Hey, by the way, there is this, this conference. Being remote will allow more people to contribute. Is there somebody you want. To prepare something. Does he want some help? So you mean like. Getting people to submit. Talk. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, we can definitely do that. We can do it in different circles. But. Doing some promotion about that. And so that we get some. People participate. Just an idea like that. I would like to test the idea with Mark or somebody more, more. Now it's to the community. I don't know, but. Here we would like to have talks to. To the dev room. Let's ask. Let's see. Let's try to trigger interest or, or. Bring people to make this step. Yeah. Okay. I like it. Anything else. No, I already spammed you. Okay. Okay. Thank you for your patience. No problem. I'm learning. I'm learning. Well, we're in this together. So no worries. All right. You have a good. Evening. Yes. You a nice day. Thank you. Your day starting now. Yes. Okay. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye.
