Re: Mentors heartbeat

Arguably, the number of mentored project doesn't reflect "the activity" per
se. Unless I am missing something.

The initial query was about finding MIA mentors - I reckon changing
the mentor_tick_pattern to look for unsigned reports would help with
that?

I said *this* measure was bad, yes. I also explicitly said that I limit my
comments to *this* specific example tooling - I don't see value in counting
"ticks" on a piece of virtual paper over a period of three years. I care
about who is doing a great job today.

Tim suggests a good way to stop this being metric based and more tool based
(i.e. finding mentors who are MIA and thus finding projects that don't have
sufficient coverage). That being said, since the IPMC review the reports
I'm not sure why this is even needed. But I don't see harm in doing it this
way so I'll leave it right there.

Re: Mentors heartbeat

Posted by Chris Mattmann <ma...@apache.org>.
Seriously, give me a break.

This has been discussed ad naseum - It's a quick simple measure
to see if one of the stated requirements for mentors (reading the
monthly report, and *signing that you read it*) has been fulfilled.
It means nothing more than that. I didn't say good. I didn't say bad.
You did.

Statistics are simply that - statistics. Meaning is derived from them
in multiple ways. You showing up on this list simply means at one point
over the past 3-4 years, you thought that putting your name on one of
those wiki pages was important enough to do so, 14 times.

Anyone that would like to let their coding/scripting do the talking,
I invite you to.

Until then, feel free to send more email messages debating this message
and the follow on reply that I won't be sending, and any further messages
to yourself and others after that.

Not. But what I'm going to start with is this: reflect
on the Incubator Wiki is the statistics on poddlings
who receive NO mentor sign-off at all.

IOW, if at least one mentor sings -- that's fine.
If none do -- we will start tracking it and will
get to the bottom of it if needed.

Basically, this is only meant to help podlings
who consistently don't get any attention from
*any* of their mentors. Not even from a single
one of them.

We owe it to our podlings. Plain and simple.
This is my job to do everything I can to empower them.
And yes that includes calling out bad mentorship
practices.

Now, as Chris M. pointed out -- his tools provide
a nice complimentary statistics that you're free
to use (or ignore). I, personally, will use them.
But only as a tool to help me better understand
past behavior, not as a hard policy for making
decisions.

Hope this makes things clear

Thanks,
Roman (wearing his VP of Incubator hat)

RE: Mentors heartbeat

Posted by rg...@opendirective.com.
Surely we are not going to start counting signing off on a report as indicative of good/bad mentoring?

What's important is whether podlings are getting what they need from their mentors. Besides,  someone who has actively mentored one new podling through initial setup in a first month will have one "tick" while someone else who has done little more than sign off on reports for the years will have many "ticks".

Case in point, I've not actively mentored a project for at least a couple of years (I just signed up to one this month), yet according to this measure I am one of the more active mentors.

Lets not demean the work good new mentors are doing by counting a few characters on a wiki page.

Note, I'm not saying rolling to assist the incubator and mentors is a bad thing. I'm saying this specific example is a bad thing.

These are the "signed off" per month mentors per podling over
the last 3 years. So it measures how many times a mentor has
signed off (summed across all podlings) during that time span.
