• Updating the Debian Outreach Delegation

    From Jonathan Carter@21:1/5 to All on Thu Nov 23 20:20:01 2023
    Dear Debian Developers


    I hereby appoint the following developers as members of the Debian
    Outreach Team:

    - Abhijith PA (abhijith)
    - Antonio Terceiro (terceiro)
    - Lucas Kanashiro (kanashiro)
    - Nilesh Patra (nilesh)
    - Sruthi Chandran (srud)

    A big thanks to Molly de Blanc, Pranav Jain and Jaminy Prabaharan who
    have worked on the outreach delegation over recent years.

    Any previous Outreach Team delegation not explicitly listed above is
    revoked. The delegation is not time-limited; it will be effective until
    further changes by present or future DPLs.


    Task Description
    ----------------

    The Debian Outreach Team co-ordinates Debian's outreach initiatives,
    which covers two main areas.

    Firstly, they are responsible for coordinating the participation of
    Debian in
    internship-like programs such as Outreachy and Google Summer of Code.

    This involves:

    * Acting as a contact point for all topics related to Debian's
    participation into those programs.

    * When necessary, ensuring the funding of Debian's participation by
    requesting the use of Debian funds to the DPL, by organizing
    fundraising campaigns, etc.

    * When necessary, establishing Debian-specific rules about who can
    apply for the various roles (mentors, participants, etc.) in
    those programs.

    * Ranking and selecting applications — generally, considering the
    feedback given by mentors and other reviewers.

    * Co-ordinating the communication around Debian's participation into
    such programs.

    Secondly, new to this delegation update, the Debian Outreach Team will
    be responsible for exploring internal outreach initiatives managed
    by the Debian project.

    This may include interns managed by Debian directly, outreach programs
    at schools and other institutions, and small grants. This may take some
    time to develop, the delegation is responsible for organising sprints
    during DebCamp and updates to the rest of the project so that members
    can stay up to date with developments.

    The delegation will officially represent Debian and the Debian Outreach
    Team, and
    have the ability to override decisions in the Debian Outreach Team if necessary.
