bio Alberto Roca

Alberto Roca PhD is the founder of EquitableTech.org -- a new tech diversity project of his non-profit, DiverseScholar.org. EquitableTech is examining equity in open source software communities and teaching minority computer science students about open source. The project is also critiquing the diversity activities of tech companies especially relating to Latino representation. EquitableTech is complementary to Dr. Roca's long-standing MinorityPostdoc.org S.T.E.M. faculty diversity project. While training as a biochemistry-bioinformatics postdoc, Dr. Roca founded the Postdoc Committee of the Society for the Advancement of Chicanos and Native Americans in Science (SACNAS) and co-founded the Diversity Committee of the National Postdoctoral Association. His expertise has led to speaking engagements at the National Association of Diversity Officers in Higher Education, the Keeping Our Faculty of Color Symposium, the National Conference for Race & Ethnicity, the Tapia Celebration of Diversity in Computing, Open Source Bridge, All Things Open, and the National Center for Women & Information Technology (NCWIT). In recognition of his achievements, Dr. Roca has received the University of California-Irvine Chancellor's Living Our Values Award, the SACNAS Presidential Service Award, and the top NCWIT Flash Tank prize for his pitch on the topic of diversity in tech journalism.

Announcing EquitableTech: Open Source Skills Training of Minority Students

"Using Social Media to Diversify Science" in book Science Blogging: The Essential Guide

Guided Tour Notes about Sugar Labs

Contributions

Summarize the roles that you think would be most applicable for your students. Have no formal classes. The EquitableTech workshops are open to all students so lowest common denominator would be documentation (Content Writer).

What are the commonalities across roles? What are the differences? Sugar Labs emphasizes collaboration through _communication_. Differences depend upon technical skill such as coding vs language fluency for translation.

Tracker

Describe the general process for submitting a bug: From specific GitHub component repo, use Issues tab

Indicate the types/categories of tickets listed on this page as well as the information available for each ticket: The Trac ticket manager has "defects" and "enhancements" types. Each bug has details such as reporter, description, status, etc.

Repository

date of last commit: Apr 29, 2018 for #489974f4243eb3a18c0bea07812c436ed8aa7d5c

Release cycle

Describe how the release cycle and roadmap update are related: The Roadmap is updated at the beginning of each release cycle

FOSS Field Trip

GitHub

education 20,715 repositories 1st project angular-education Graphs- quantitative overview of number of pull requests & issues Commits- reverse chronological roster of repo changes

humanitarian 399 repositories HTBox/crisischeckin last commit Apr 22

disaster management 237 repositories

OpenHub

education 2260 repositories KDE Education has no code on GitHub 10 similar projects information about project: license, quantitative overview of codebase, activity, community size

humanitarian 30 repositories

disaster management 30 repositories

"activity not available" can occur if project has problems with their code locations

Organizations = roster of institutions responsible for certain OSS projects

OpenHub OpenMRS core last commit March 11 versus GitHub June 14 different information since repos do not synch w/each other. one may be a fork created by users who prefer different interface/host

benefits/drawbacks of using both GitHub and OpenHub to search for a project? drawback is provenance to know which repo is most authoritative and latest code
