Community work related questions

[furkatgofurov7]

Hi!

We have been going through this project recently and found it very interesting and would like to involve in the community work of this repo. Some questions that would be nice to get answers related to the project mostly from a community work perspective:

• If you guys organize any community meetings on a weekly/biweekly/monthly basis?
• Is there any channel or means of communication (slack/IRC or mailing list) for users or contributors who might have any questions about the project or discuss some feature requests beforehand with maintainers of the project?
• What is the agreed procedure, if any, for proposing new design features to the project, etc?

Thanks.

Hi @furkatgofurov7 !

Thank you for reaching out and for your questions. Please see the comments below:

If you guys organize any community meetings on a weekly/biweekly/monthly basis?

No, we don't have any community meetings at the moment, since we didn't have a substantial level of external contribution, so far. But we intend to present the project at sig-scheduling if we get an opportunity for it.

Is there any channel or means of communication (slack/IRC or mailing list) for users or contributors who might have any questions about the project or discuss some feature requests beforehand with maintainers of the project?

We are discussing creating some sort of communication as you suggested, like a slack channel or mailing list we hope to post some decision about it. Meanwhile, if the contribution deeming a direct approach, the contributors can contact any of the maintainers.

What is the agreed procedure, if any, for proposing new design features to the project, etc?

So far, any contribution can be done by opening a PR. It is also ok to create an issue here for your proposal if you wish. Later one, the procedure will be revisited once we have other means of communication sorted.

Hope that helps.

Great to hear, will look forward to that.

Makes sense, the issue is a good place to start the discussion always, thanks.
