OSC Community Call Tomorrow, May 18th!
Published on May 17, 2023 by Richard Littauer
Hey all,
Just a quick note to say that the next community call will be tomorrow, at the regular time at the third Thursday, May 18th, at 12:00pm EST (9:00am PST, 5:00pm GMT).
Sign Up: You can sign up to attend here.
Agenda: If you have anything you want to talk about with other collectives, add them to the agenda here. That includes sharing about your work and successes you've had, and goals you're looking forward to working towards this year!
Last events: If you would like to see the last community call, you can watch it on YouTube here. The transcripts for that call can be read here.
It's worth mentioning here that there was a great discussion last time about READMEs. Ruth Cheesley of Mautic asked:

With this change maybe coming soon to GitHub I’m thinking about how to improve our README to make it a better experience for our users and contributors. I’d love to know of any READMEs you’ve come across on your travels that you really like, and why!
Out of this came the following links, that may help people out:
- https://github.com/matiassingers/awesome-readme (A list of awesome readmes)
- https://github.com/hackergrrl/art-of-readme (How to write good ones)
- https://github.com/RichardLitt/standard-readme#readme (A standard for simple code packages)
- https://github.com/LappleApple/feedmereadmes#readme (A place to throw READMEs)
- What I used to use to audit repos and orgs and READMEs: https://github.com/mntnr/audit-templates/
If anyone is interested, you can also feedme, [email protected], with your READMEs! I am happy to review and give some feedback.
I also want to celebrate those who made it to our first every OSC welcome party! The recording for this call is available here. We'll run another one of these next month.
Next events: For those who want to know about future events, I've also added all of the Community Calls for the next six months with their times to the OSC Events page.
Time zones: If you would like to have calls at a different hour due to time zones, let me know. I'm happy to run another call at a different time.
Calendar invite: I have a calendar invite I am happy to extend to others. Hit me up at [email protected] and I'll invite you to it, if you want to keep that time blocked in your calendar!
Talk soon,
Richard
