Bio: I am involved with the Humanitarian Engineering and Computing (HE&C) minor at Miami University and serve as the advisor for the Computer Science students enrolled in this the minor. I am also the faculty advisor of the local chapter of the Girls Who Code club. I am interested in the HFOSS initiative as a way to recruit and retain minority students and provide learning opportunities for students in the HE&C minor.

Stage 1A. Intro to FOSS Project -- Notes

SUGAR LABS

1. Contributions
   • Roles most applicable to my students:

     Developer

     writing and testing code, reporting bugs

     Designer

     user interface design, web design, mock-ups design -- suitable for my students majoring in Software Engineering

   • Commonalities across roles: Focus on communication and education.
   • Differences between roles: Different skillsets are required.
2. Tracker
   • Submitting a bug: Find the relevant activity or repo component; go to the issues tab; press the green button to submit a bug.
   • Types of tickets: defect, enhancement, task
   • Information available for each ticket: ticket (number), summary (description), status (new, assigned, reopened, accepted, closed), owner, type, priority(unspecified, normal, high, low), milestone
3. Repository
   • Date of last commit: March 13, 2019
4. Release Cycle:

   • Relationship between the release cycle and roadmap update: The roadmap is updated at the beginning of each release cycle. The roadmap may include

     the schedule of release dates and freeze points; the list of modules and external dependencies; references to tickets considered for the release; references to new feature proposals.

1. Community
   • Commonalities between contributor groups: Most of the roles are rather on the technical side. The only exceptions are the tester and translator roles.
   • Differences between contributor groups: technical vs. non-technical contributor; required expertise (e.g., GIS, sys admin, etc.); amount of details, guidelines and training provided
   • Differences in structure compared to the Sugar Labs website: The technical roles are more in number and divided into separate categories (developers, designers, Sys Admins, GIS specialists); generally more guidelines and instructions; a higher level of technical expertise seems to be required at first glance.
2. Tracker
   • Differences with respect to the Sugar Labs tracker page:
     • Preset labels can be selected from a dropdown menu
     • Labels are not grouped by type of information in the list of labels to choose from (e.g., priority labels, type of issue labels and component information are all mixed together in the same list), but they are color-coded
     • The date when the issue was open is recorded
     • Comments are available
   • Types of issues: bug, enhancement, documentation
3. Repository
   • Date of last commit: April 26, 2019
