Airflow + Hacktoberfest 2020

Hi all,

Hacktoberfest 2020 is coming nearer! The main point of this initiative
is to engage more people in open-source development.
https://hacktoberfest.digitalocean.com/

Last year there was an idea to engage our community in this initiative
but then the main problem was JIRA. Now, when we use Github issues our
participation as an open-source project comes to labeling issues with
`Hacktoberfest` label and making sure that we respond nicely to
incoming PRs.

What do you think? Should we take part in this project?

Cheers,
Tomek

Morning!
I just sent a tentative invite for a call this Friday at 11AMCST in hopes
that this helps get things moving. Looking forward to learning more.
Stay healthy and safe everyone!

Hi everyone,

Sorry for my late answer, we just ended the Beam Summit today =)

We will be happy to help you with the monthly sessions, and if you need 
help on the Airflow Summit meets Hacktoberfest, please let us know (BTW 
we will jump into Hackoberfest with the Open Source contribution summit 
we have planned for October, I will share more info about this summit in 
another message).

We would like to have a quick call next Friday, same time we used to 
have the event weekly calls (11am CT US), so we can discuss the Airflow 
Summit monthly sponsored meetups requirements in more detail. In the 
mean time I will prepare a proposal of what we believe will be needed 
and how it could work in terms of involvement, promotion, timing, etc.

*I am adding Alma who is new at SG team and will be happy to help us in 
this project.

Let me know any comment.

Mara.

Yes, I'm in as well, sorry for slow response!
We can probably bring a few others from Astronomer to join in too (for
example, Pete DeJoy from our team is eager to get involved here).

@QP - for the workshops, it's not much but the time :). Not even a lot of
preparation is needed (by the people who actively commit the code to
Airflow). It's basically answering people's questions - when the attendees
get to the "hands-on" part and have some problems - breaking out to
separate chat on slack/hangout and helping them online (with possibly a
screen sharing session).

During the workshop. we help people to choose and implement a small
change/fix - like a small documentation change or one-liner fix (you can't
do more than that in the 3 hrs time with new contributors).

Here is the (very short) agenda we have for now when we run it with Tomek:
https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1h2o5_1RVFWTDIXiaGilgplUFOaTcZ6hC--gRAJ9uIF0/edit#slide=id.g58a0b9556c_0_1105
-
and we give people a prerequisite to fulfill - setting up Breeze to get the
dev environment up and running and get their development environment ready
is something they must do before the training.

I’d love to help out! I’ve learned a ton from past Hacktoberfests on other projects, would love to pay it forward :).

+1

It would be nice if we had a lot of simple but well-described tickets
during this event. This will increase the chances that new contributors
will want to contribute to our project.

What are the expected commitments if one wants to help with organizing
the workshops?

Re: Airflow + Hacktoberfest 2020

Posted by Jarek Potiuk <Ja...@polidea.com>.
Absolutely. +10.

We can even do more than that. We are planning with Tomek to run two
workshops in October - the continuation of the Airflow Summit's "First-time
contributors to Apache Airflow". We have already a waitlist of people for
the workshops. And this makes 100% sense to join it and make it a kind of
"Airflow Summit meets Hacktoberfest" event (That's Tomek's idea - kudos for
that!).

Another thing we discussed with Ry yesterday was to involve the meetups
that co-organized the Airflow Summit, could run a regular monthly  "Airflow
Summit" branded online meetups - each time hosted by a different meetup.
Those would be similar to the 3-hours sessions we had at the summit. So we
could start this as part of the Hacktoberfest activities and brand it all
together as "Airflow Summit" initiatives.

Also - if there are any people in the community who would like to help with
organizing this - I think everyone is welcome. The team that organized the
summit is already experienced and I think we are all happy to bring other
people on board to continue doing that with our help and mentorship (and
likely still involvement - I think we were all so happy with the results
that there is no reason why we should not take part in organizing the next
ones.

What do you think community people? Is anyone willing to help :)? It's not
that difficult (especially if you can get help from us), It's
super-rewarding, you get to know a lot of interesting people. We have a
fantastic team from Software Guru, who 'produces" the events (and they are
very good at that), we have Astronomer Google Cloud and Polidea who can
continue the sponsorship I believe :).

And I think all people from the organizer's team will be more than happy to
welcome others to help to organize it forward.

It's a community thing, so I would love to see more of people from the
community involved.

I am super happy personally to mentor people in with my experience for one
(It's the 6th big event I organized but this one was hands-down the best).

Ry, others - what do you think?

Anyone from the community willing to help :)?
J.
