Upstreaming MOOC Remote Sprint - Winter 2021
Hi all,
During the last update meeting yesterday, with Marc and Kendall we discussed organizing a remote sprint, to work together towards our goal of having a draft text for the course ready by the end of the year. It could also be a fun occasion to see each other, whether you're a regular of the project, or contributing from time to time. : )
We have suggested the following dates for it: * *Wednesday, December 8th https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Upstreaming+MOOC+Remote+Sprint+-+Winter+2021&iso=20211208T15&p1=%3A&ah=4 & Friday, December 10th https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Upstreaming+MOOC+Remote+Sprint+-+Winter+2021&iso=20211210T15&p1=%3A&ah=4, from 15:00 to 19:00 UTC*. It is split in two days to allow for better timezones coverage. * Location: https://digimedia1.r2.enst.fr/b/mar-vab-tqr -- we will keep the confcall in the background during the sprint, to coordinate and discuss as needed. * Add the event to your calendar: ICS https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/c_1ma25cdcrp6kj373nl808ndv34%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics, Google Calendar https://calendar.google.com/event?action=TEMPLATE&tmeid=Nzk4dmFwdW9qdW1vOTBhdjhzZmYyNG1icnZfMjAyMTEyMDhUMTUwMDAwWiB4YXZpZXJAb3BlbmNyYWZ0LmNvbQ&tmsrc=xavier%40opencraft.com&scp=ALL
Would you like to join us? : )
Xavier.
NB1: If you would like to have a look at the current state of the project in the meantime, see this demo of the course draft version https://courses.opencraft.com/courses/course-v1:MOOC-FLOSS+101+dev/course/, which includes some of the structure and content. See also our new project homepage https://mooc-floss.gitlab.io/mooc-floss/.
NB2: If I have forgotten anyone in CCs, could you forward this email to them? Thanks!
Quick follow-up on this, since the sprint is next week.
About a third of us have confirmed attendance through the calendar event (thanks! :D) -- for the rest of us, could you either do the same by confirming/refusing via the calendar event, or replying here? This way we'll know a bit in advance how many people we are, which will help with the preparation.
Thanks! : )
Xavier.

Hi all,
Small update after today's preparatory meeting :
- The main goal of the sprint is to aim for a draft version of as much of the MOOC as possible. - To save on setup time and on conflict resolution, we'll work on an openedx instance setup for the sprint (on opencraft) which will be updated before the sprint to the current/latest version of the course, then merged after the sprint into the repo. - To save time on coordination, Rémi (M2, M5), Xavier (M4) and I (M6) will prepare the outline of the course based on the transcripts, in order to have it all prepared so that people can work on individual sections right away - The plan is to start at 3PM UTC with a small setup discussion + define who wants to write on which sections, then work until 5PM UTC, where we'll make a pause and progress discussion, then back to writing until around 6h45UTC (probably 6h30 UTC on Friday to get more discussion time) - We'll meet on https://digimedia1.r2.enst.fr/b/mar-vab-tqr (bigbluebutton) for voice discussions
See you on Wednesday !
