Are you involved with other communities? Tell us about what you do in other communities or projects.
Do you already contribute to Fedora? Let us know what parts of Fedora you are involved in.
Are you an organizer of local events or programs? If you run any kind of event in your local community, let us know what you do.
What is interesting to you about the {team_name}? Our team is a collection of people with different interests and niches. Knowing each others' interests and what we like lets us connect each other to things we want to help out with.
Join Matrix chat room
The {team_name} has a real-time chat room on Matrix. We use the chat room for quick updates, friendly chatter, and running meetings. Use link:{team_synch_communication}[this link] to join from your preferred Matrix client. Don't forget to say hi when you join!
Attend a meeting
link:{team_meetings}[**Find our next meeting on our calendar!**]
The {team_name} usually holds a fortnightly meeting over Jitsi Meet to review ongoing work and plan new work. It is a good opportunity to say hello and meet other team members in real-time while seeing how we work. See the xref:meetings.adoc[team meeting guide] for how our meetings work, including the xref:meetings.adoc#social-agreement[social agreement] and xref:meetings.adoc#format[meeting format].
Ticket-based task management
The next step to get involved is to review our ticket tracker and look for a task that is interesting to you. Our open tickets are in our link:{team_issue_tracker}[GitLab repository]. New tasks are added as "issues" into GitLab.
See a ticket that looks interesting? If someone is not already assigned, leave a comment and ask how you can help. Another member of the team will get back to you with feedback. This is an opportunity to get casual mentoring on a task.
Alternatively, do you think something is missing or could be improved in the Fedora community? Open a new ticket with your idea or suggestion. Our best ideas come from a wide range of people with different backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. Whether you are new to the Fedora community or are a long-time contributor, you might have the next great idea for the team. Open a new ticket and we can discuss more about your idea or suggestion.
Team sponsorship
When someone is considered a full voting member of the {team_name}, we call this person a *sponsored member*. After spending time contributing with the {team_name}, you can join the team in a formal capacity as a full voting member. The process to become sponsored is as follows:
Talk to a member(s) of the {team_name} to find a sponsor. You can see a list of sponsored team members in the https://accounts.fedoraproject.org/group/diversity-team/[`diversity-team` Fedora Account System group].
Sponsor will open a "New Team Member" ticket on the {team_name} ticket tracker.
Ticket will be open for two weeks for others members to vote and/or give commentary about your team membership.
If we do not reach consensus in the two-week period, it can be extended for another two weeks.
A negative vote halts the process and requires discussion.
Full consensus is required for you to join the {team_name}. This means at least three +1 votes and no -1 votes.
If consensus is met, you will then be added to the Fedora Account System (FAS) group.
Sponsors will evaluate your membership in a couple of ways:
*Ability to work cooperatively with peers*.
By the interactions potential members have in meetings and in channel.
By how potential members respond to criticism.
By how potential members participate on the forum, chat room, and ticket trackers.
*Community involvement beyond the {team_name}*.
By the interactions potential members have in the Fedora community.
Does the potential member engage on the forum, chat room, and ticket trackers?
Do they show a helpful attitude and respect for other ideas of others?
*Commitment and follow-through*.
