mhmm Kuchenkaiser is good! what a pitty i cannot come @xMartin can you put on the agenda or just ask around if anybody would be interested to occasionally write (or even just edit) the content of the OTS Newsletter?
We have people from syria show up at colearnings but there isn’t anything specific planned at the moment. The reach-out kinda died down.
Website
Update: there will be a workshop on the website very soon, the organisers will meet within the next three weeks. Side note: we have an OTS website contribution by a Web-Colearning-Participant. We need more copy-editing. Write issues regarding the website on github.
Action Items:
[ ] @ben will send a PR for a code of conduct, based on the Berlin Code of Conduct (including a link to the coaches guideline)
Nodeschool Berlin & OTS Berlin joint-venture
Nodeschool Berlin & OTS joined the efforts in running the node school co-learning effort and Mar took over the FB Page for OTS.
Checkins from the meetup
Learners-Meetup & Python are going well
R will stop, lack of organisers
Ruby is going well
Web-Co-Learning going well, too
Rust Co-Learning is going well, but the meetup is sending too many emails
Newsletter
We need people to write the newsletter. @anouk is interested in picking it up. @defsprite offers to proof-read.
Meetup
OTS Berlin is having a lot of meetups on a regular basis and people complain about that. @ben relays that meetup contact the group and offered to join multiple accounts into one ‘corporate’-ish account, which would allow us to also have multiple Berlin groups.
Action items:
[x] @ben: will investigate what the limits and basis of that new corporate account, will share info on separate discourse thread
Volunteers
[x] @mamhoff will organise next meeting: April 11th.
Just one addition: The Rust Hack and Learn meetup solved the email problem by sending important information to a separate mailing list for participants that mute meetup.com emails.
I made a master post with the list of organizers. Also added as link in the “about us” section on meetup. Any idea how to convince people to go there instead of using the meetup contact form?
Although I’ll be absent in May, I vote for @chiara to pick the next place to meet: One argument was that we could move within Berlin and make it more accessible to more people that way, yet we kinda always end up in Kreuzberg/Neuköln (which I know for at least some to be not super accessible on a Monday evening).
