Blog Post for Week 12

Introduction

👋Holla everyone!

I am Jaskirat Singh, an open-source research strategist, and tech diversity community management specialist, developing new and improving existing, computer-based technologies, systems, and solutions in advanced open source ecosystems. I have been working quite a while with various communities in the open-source, helping them maintain good relationships with external communities and projects, organizing meetups and events generating FOSS ecosystem, supporting the community in the outreach, creation of tools, and process with good relationships.

I hold great experience in mentorship spends most of the mine time mentoring and administrating young-minded people across the globe such as an administrator in Google Summer of Code and in Google Code-In for Terasology Foundation(Codeuino), Google Season of Docs Administrator for Open Collective, Mentor at Rails Girls Summer of Code and MLH League Summer program and recently administrating for Codeuino Mentorship project under The Linux Foundation CommunityBridge mentorship platform

I help organizations understand, use, release, and contribute to free and open-source software in a way that’s good for both their end-users and for the community.

Exciting news! I am in my last month’s phase of the Google Season of Docs program working on a CHAOSS Project under The Linux Foundation.

Work Done this Week

Day 1 [Research & Documentation]

  • After making fair research about the General faq that needs to be written under the section, I started writing about it in the GitBook.
  • Wrote about — What is CHAOSS? What does CHAOSS stand for? What is the metric? Why does Community Health matter? What does Community Health mean?

Day 2 [Research & Documentation]

  • Wrote about — How do I get involved? How do I use your software? Is my open source community healthy? How can I assess the health of my community?

Day 3 [Research & Documentation]

  • Researched What metric can help me to assess the health of my community? But couldn’t find that
  • Wrote about — How do I get involved? How do I use your software? Is my open source community healthy? How can I assess the health of my community?

Day 4 [Research & Documentation]

  • Wrote about — Where can I find the relevant metric I am looking for? What is D&I badging? Does CHAOSS provide any tools to measure the open source project or community health? Who are the maintainers of the CHAOSS? Whom should I contact if I have any questions? Does CHAOSS record their meeting?

Day 5–6 [General]

  • Wrote about the Bog Post for week 12

Day 7 [Research & Documentation]

  • After making fair research about the General faq that needs to be written under the section, I started writing about it in the GitBook.

Once again, I am very much grateful to my mentors and the community members for being so supportive.
