Asynchronous and synchronous communication
tools are *both* important. (mchua ,

Hackergotchis are pictures of people who post
on a Planet, so people can put faces to names. (mchua ,
12:25:41)
If you want a hackergotchi, email Pierros your
picture. (mchua ,
12:25:58)
search strategies (mchua , 12:31:09)
Google is your friend. (mchua ,
12:31:14)
Look at mailing list archives, meeting (IRC)
logs, wiki pages for a project. (mchua ,
12:31:28)
When you ask people for further info, point
them to the things you've already found and tell them what you've
already looked at. (mchua ,
12:31:54)
Oftentimes, asking "where should I ask this
question?" will point you to the right place. (mchua ,
12:32:13)
Asking in the right place is just as important
as asking the right question! (mchua ,
12:32:58)
Mission (mchua , 12:33:03)
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Overview
(mchua ,
12:33:07)
"The mission is the community." (mchua ,
12:33:16)
Communities of Practice - people coming
together because they work on/towards the same, or similar,
things. (mchua ,
12:33:37)
Anatomy of a FOSS project (mchua , 12:38:04)
this means 2 things - first, what's the
governance model? (mchua ,
12:38:10)
second, how's the actual artifact
structured? (mchua ,
12:38:17)
asking good questions (mchua , 12:41:24)
* What doesn't work? (mchua ,
12:41:57)
* What do you want to happen? (mchua ,
12:42:01)
* Prove to me that it doesn't work.
(mchua ,
12:42:11)
* What have you tried so far and what has
happened? (mchua ,
12:42:25)
Feedback round (mchua , 12:45:27)
Answer 2 questions: (mchua ,
12:45:32)
* Are we going in the right direction?
(mchua ,
12:45:37)
* Is it different from what you
expected? (mchua ,
12:45:44)
Jan: Yes, we're going in the right direction.
This is chaotic, and it will get worse, but I think we're going to
have a good time together. (mchua ,
12:46:08)
Pierros: Yes, we're going in the right
direction. I was prepared to deal with crazy things this week, watch
people learning how to learn. (mchua ,
12:47:04)
Michael A: I think we're on the right track, We
got exposed to tools we can use later on, while teaching. Are we
getting productively lost? Oh yeah. (mchua ,
12:48:10)
Boniface: We're going in the right direction.
It's surprising how many ways you can use these tools to interact
with students, i'm used to lecturing. (mchua ,
12:48:59)
Michael G: We're in the right direction, At the
abstract level this is what I expected, but the details are
unexpected. (mchua ,
12:49:58)
Grant: Laziness - I will say what everyone else
did! Steep learning curve. (mchua ,
12:52:42)
closing (mchua , 12:59:10)
We'll be on this IRC channel tonight, feel free
to come back and ask questions. (mchua ,
12:59:40)
Please email your first blog posts to the
mailing list. (mchua ,
