PROJECT TEAMS GATHERING 2024

OCTOBER 21-25, 2024

About this Event

The Project Teams Gathering (PTG) allows OpenInfra community groups (and adjacent open source community project teams) working on open source projects to meet virtually, exchange ideas and get work done in a productive, low-key setting. Discussions might include items like: priority setting for the upcoming months, assigning work items, iterating quickly on solutions for complex problems, or making fast progress on critical issues. Since teams decide their own schedule and agendas for their meetings, the PTG is able to fit each team’s needs and facilitate cross community and cross team collaboration.

The ‘co-location’ of these meetings into a combined event, in conjunction with  the dynamic scheduling and transparency of topics being discussed per team, enables open collaboration for our open communities to discuss any specific topic (open design & open development).

Examples of teams that have participated in past PTG’s are: the Diversity & Inclusion Working Group, Kata Containers, Confidential Containers, OpenDev, the Computing Force Network, OpenStack Operators, Nova, Ironic, Cinder, StarlingX and many others! Whether your team is focused on a general theme in open infrastructure or a particular repo or service, there is space for your open source community.

SCHEDULE & PTGBot

View the current schedule in the PTGbot[1] to find out when teams are meeting. To access the video meeting rooms, links are embedded into the team's name as it appears in the schedule. The PTGbot[2] is an open source tool that PTG track moderators use to surface what's currently happening at the event.Track moderators will send messages to the bot via the #openinfra-events channel on IRC, and from that information, the bot publishes a webpage[1] with several sections of information about what is happening "now" or "next".

IRC

The main form of synchronous communication between attendees during the PTG is on IRC. If you are not on IRC, learn how to get started here [3]. The main PTG IRC channel is #openinfra-events on the OFTC network. It's also used to interact with the PTGbot, and where OpenInfra Foundation staff will be present to help answer questions.

NEED HELP?

If you run into any issues during the PTG week, please Kendall Nelson (diablo_rojo) on IRC in the #openinfra-events channel or email [email protected] and we will help you out!

The PTG is for everyone. We have zero tolerance for harassment and other violations of the OpenInfra Community Code of Conduct. Before the PTG begins, please review the Code of Conduct[4] and know how to report an issue.
