Google Season of Docs: CHAOSS Project under The Linux Foundation — Week 4
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 a 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 working within the Google Season of Docs program on a CHAOSS Project under The Linux Foundation.
Things I learned this week
This week I worked on the “Terminology Usage Guidelines”, “Roadmap”, and “Google Summer of Code” section.
Within this week I had a better chance to understand the CHAOSS community goals and workflows more profoundly as that helped me to start with the Roadmap section within the community handbook. Though after mentioning by mentors, I would be continuing the work on the roadmap section in week 15.
I also got a chance to explore about Google Summer of Code program as I wrote within the community handbook explaining how to get involved as a student and mentor under the CHAOSS community.
Another interesting fact is that within this week I also had a chance to talk with Eril Fox regarding the design requirements within the community handbook.
Excited news! I have surpassed the community Bonding period and now I am officially into Doc Development Phase under the CHAOSS Project
