Global Operations Team 2019 - Call for contribution

AB Alexandre Bigot-Verdier Public Seen by 36

Hello dear ouishare connectors,

In 2018, a small team of connectors from different communities gathered regularly in order to manage tasks related to the commons of the global ouishare community.
This team was initially gathered by @francesca, composed of : @auli, @esratat, @helenevuaroqueaux, @anamanli, @saraheisenmann, @manuelayamada, @ehabelia and myself.
This work have especially been documented in this post (https://www.loomio.org/d/JT04Amrb/global-budget-2018-validation).
It was the first time in ouishare (short) history that so many people took collectively transversal responsabilities and that we were able to directly finance it. Before that; it was done only by @francesca who was paid by other projects.

The objectives of this team are :
- mapping the commons of ouishare
- budgeting how much we need to maintain them and find this money from local communities
- working on a global strategy for ouishare (not really been done in 2018)
- proposing this work on summits and loomio for global approbation

As we would like this process to be the more open possible, this is a call to contribute to the 2019 team.
The 2018-team takes the engagement of training the new ones until december and working with them on a global process that will be published here, asking for a clear mandate from the global community.

Edit from @esratat :
Being part of the global ops team is a great way to see how OS "works" :) (and it's worth joining even if you feel like you're a bit too "new" as a Connector.)

You can find the roles that have been financed in 2018 in the budget : https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/17plMldy8pq1395RCRuPK_T0e6OESMbdTDouKQVQkgC4/edit
You can find a description of each role and the amount of work that is needed in this document : https://docs.google.com/document/d/1dRgApkxStISnoV5JS3E7zgL_cqgaSsF6kxocIiKrRXw/edit#heading=h.8462mv8kdxl

So, who's in ?

Hey Alex! As a new connector I’ll be glad to join the team for this work in 2018-2019 and get closer to the ouishare practices. I’ll be working hard to help the community to progress! Btw it would be an honour to have you as a teacher! I’ll be available as soon as needed ;-)

hi Alex, i was going through the notes and i'm reflecting on this. how much time, you rekon, could this role take on a weekly/monthly base in terms of commitment and scaffolding/operational tasks?

Hello Elena. It depends on the role, the descriptions are written for you to imagine but I would say that you have to be ready to spend half a day per month.

Hi Alexandre, sorry for responding so late. I would be interested in a strategy part, but saw many operational parts in the roles and didn't get the time to look at it very well chasing the tenders. Let's catch up if it is still welcome.

Hello @alexbigver ! As mentioned in my connector re-introduction, I'd be happy to support this work. I cannot access the roles yet (ping @auli ) , but pretty open to work according to needs. Sorry that I'm a bit late in the game, but just let me know.

Hello Everyone!

Coming back from holidays, I am happy to see that @stinaheikkila @rammelaere and @pierrelaurentsalin jumped in the boat; that @aliciatrepat is OK to join the boat but not completely sure and that @ehabelia is so well in the boat that he wants to remain there! I plan a meeting in the next few days and we keep you informed here!

Thanks to those who took the time to answer, even if it was "no"!

I switch to slack for internal coordinnation
