[NCSG-PC] EPDP support activities / "Backroom"

[Rafik Dammak]

Hi all,

as we are done now with the selection, we can resume our discussion on how
to coordinate NCSG interventions and support EPDP members actions.

several NCSG members expressed interest to help and volunteer for tasks (to
be listed). so please share your ideas for any relevant task.

one quick action is to create a separate mailing list including EPDP reps
and any interested volunteer. the mailing list may be non-public as we can
strategize there. @Maryam can you please create a new list?

for the EPDP conf calls, it would make sense to have a skype chat for
example for real-time discussion and coordination. I can set up that
quickly.

documentation: that point was made several times that we need to document
positions, interventions etc for referring to them later. I think that can
be supported by volunteers and with guidance from EPDP members. same for
working documents versioning.

we can also schedule EPDP NCSG call. maybe weekly will be too much in term
of scheduling and adding more burden.  biweekly would make more sense.

please share your thoughts and suggestions if I missed anything.

in meantime, Maryam can create a wiki space where to put info, having a
documents repository and so on.

Best,

Rafik

Hi,

Thanks Stephanie and Martin for the quick response, looking to hear from
others.

I wanted also to add about the coordination channels, which includes PC
monitoring EPDP team, regular NCSG confcall for EPDP  and getting regular
updates from representatives, we can
- have a non-public mailing list only for our members interested by the
topic, but we will keep  up to date the whole membership via NCSG list
- setup a skype channel for including the representatives and others who
want to back up so we can do coordination during the calls.
- documenting positions and arguments (for example in wiki or google doc)
so we can refer to them easily.

it doesn't matter what tech we will choose at the end but we need to setup
this quickly and ensure its continuity for the duration of EPDP. I am also
mindful to not put more workload and overhead for this effort and keep
things bearable for everyone.

I see the role of PC to support the EPDP representatives and facilitate the
work, we need some division of labor to be efficient and effective.  that
also includes all interested people by the topic who are observers too.

Best,

Rafik
