Tasks

Welcome to the Forwards task repository! We will use the issues here to keep track of what each team is doing and identify where help is needed. Comments and offers to help are welcome from anyone in the R community!

Initial Setup

We are held an asynchronous workshop (May 26 - June 30) to transfer existing tasks and gather ideas for new tasks.

  • Anyone interested is welcome to contribute.

Phase 1:

  • For each team we will collect ideas for projects, tasks, goals from all participants as GitHub issues
  • tag issues by relevant team(s) (see Forwards About page for teams)
  • team members should include existing tasks, so we can see existing commitments and prioritise tasks
  • add a milestone for existing tasks, e.g. expected month of completion for one-off tasks; or "on-going" for tasks such as liaison with RUGs or writing up minutes from meetings.
  • tasks completed during the workshop should be closed

Phase 2:

Add clarifications, questions and answers on collected ideas

  • comment on each others' issues

Phase 3:

Each participant hearts 2 issues per team that they think we should prioritise

  • tasks with milestones can be ignored as already under-way

Phase 4:

We sort ideas and tasks by hearts per team, core team meet to prioritise tasks.

Team leaders

  • add milestones to tasks that we will start on right away
  • add "help wanted" and (if appropriate) "good first issue" labels to new tasks, or existing tasks where more help is needed match team members to tasks where they see a good fit

Taskforce members

  • assign themselves to issues where help is needed
  • delete "help wanted" if you can do it by yourself, otherwise keep "help wanted" tag, perhaps adding comment on the type of help required (e.g. more people to help with task directly or someone to mentor you doing task)

Non-taskforce members

  • let us know in the comments if you can help with a specific issue (one-off help), or
  • would like to join a team (commit beyond one-off task)!

Ongoing work

After the initial effort to set up tasks, we will need to maintain the task lists (issues) for each team.

  • Please see taskforce roles for the responsibilities of team leaders and team members in how we plan to do this.
  • Let the core team know (via slack/ [email protected]) if you would like to change your role.
