Where the engagement team plans and coordinates their initiatives. Newcomers are welcome!

Welcome to the Engagement Team!

EngagementBanner

The Engagement Team helps GNOME thrive by facilitating communication between users, contributors, partners, and anyone else who might be interested in the GNOME project. If you're interested in promoting free software or helping to improve the GNOME community in any way, you've found the right team to join.

We use GitLab (this website), to track requests from the community and plan our initiatives. If you need help learning how to use GitLab, check out our documentation resources here. Newcomers are always welcome!

How do I get involved

The best way to get involved is to join the Engagement Matrix Channel. You can also join one of our monthly meetings.

In addition, you can also contact the coordinator for each of our main areas of work:

How to request help from the Engagement Team

We have created various project boards on GitLab to help you seek help. Here is a brief description of each of the main boards you may wish to visit:

  • Events: Plan large-scale GNOME event details and logistics (GUADEC, GNOME.Asia).
  • Event Sponsorship Requests: Request support, funding, and SWAG for your event, release party, or local team.
  • Social Media and News: Get help developing articles or posts, request promotion of GNOME-related items, coordinate official GNOME channels.
  • Engagement Assets: Access all of the files, images, or other assets used by the Engagement Team.
  • General: You are currently seeing the General Engagement board. We use this board to plan our team initiatives.

For more detailed descriptions, view the details section of each of the above boards.
