But some are good first contribution tickets and if anyone would like to help please ping me! :) 14:10:32 thanks championquizzer! 14:11:28 i also enabled GitHub and Discord logins, so people don't need to create new credentials for the forum. 14:12:47 https://forum.torproject.net/t/enable-github-login-and-other-platforms/286/3 14:13:44 i think that's all about the official Tor Forum release. people are good? 14:14:18 i think we should briefly discuss about the soft launch period and how it went 14:14:28 okk 14:14:41 would you like to start? 14:15:32 we haven't run into any issues with respect to moderation, barring one person which ggus dealt with (ty!) 14:16:05 we have been quick in the whole moderation process as well i.e approving posts and accounts 14:16:34 i look forward to how it goes when we migrate blog comments to the forum :) 14:16:39 yup, I just signed up and got approved in seconds 14:17:04 tor people! <3 14:18:14 we also had some people arguing about selfhosting vs 3rd hosting (Discourse). See: https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-talk/2021-October/045780.html 14:19:23 we should talk with TPA and see how we can selfhost the Discourse forum 14:19:48 but it's a project for the next year 14:19:55 (imo) 14:20:26 yes. +1 on having this discussion 14:21:20 fwiw, we have some services that are not selfhosted, eg, IRC 14:21:35 and even the blog 14:23:01 emmapeel and others, do you have any feedback that you would like to share? (first week of the forum) 14:23:40 i also created this issue: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/community/support/-/issues/40045 14:23:46 people seems to like it 14:26:50 ok, anything else about the forum soft release? 14:27:20 "yup, I just signed up and got..." <- yea... about this I feel the sign up form could be better, currently, there is only one password field without a "confirm password" or better still we can enable show password by using "eye icon" that a user can toggle on or off as they type just be sure, since the password field requires a 10 character long password. 14:27:20 A suggestion though. 14:28:51 i can review the login configuration and check if there's an option to let you toggle on/off 14:29:55 if not, i think this can be a good suggestion for discourse folks as well. And we learnt from deeplow that they are quite responsive with suggestions and feedback :) 14:30:35 (https://meta.discourse.org/) 14:31:33 ggus: great. :) 14:32:05 ok, moving to the last topic 14:32:11 End of Outreachy contribution period: 14:32:18 - Note: Nov. 5, 2021 4pm UTC is the deadline for applicants to record contributions and create a final application. 14:32:28 yepp 14:32:41 Please review my documents 14:32:52 important: i will be offline between wednesday - friday. if you have questions, ask me before end of tuesday 14:33:03 suree 14:33:10 Shreya: where can i review your docs? did you share with me? 14:33:34 should I share it here for the team to see? 14:33:41 to submit your final application, you must send a timeline for your internship 14:33:58 Shreya: you can upload to google docs or github gist and send to my email 14:33:59 I've created a timeline as well 14:34:08 okay 14:34:10 great! 14:34:14 doing it now 14:34:33 ggus: please, how do you mean timeline? 14:35:34 Buchi[m]: a rough timeline of how you see your project will pan out in the three months 14:35:39 " The final application will include a timeline of the work to be done during the internship, and it's expected that applicants will work with mentors to define that timeline, taking into account any time commitments the applicant has." 14:37:04 championquizzer: Alright, Thank you ggus. 14:37:44 how are you doing with the project tasks? 14:38:12 some applicants asked feedback about their tasks and i'm a little bit behind 14:38:28 but i will do that today 14:38:51 if you shared your task on google docs, please remember to give me permission to add comments 14:39:34 ggus: sent! 14:39:57 thank you, Shreya 14:40:17 :) 14:41:44 Shreya: regarding this note -> Working on this issue- https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/ux/design/-/issues/12 14:41:54 "" The final application will..." <- Okay ggus..
