Workgroups

General Information

Workgroups are the heart of our open-source project. A workgroup is a temporary or permanent group of Community Heroes who work together on a single or several open feature requests, bugs or feature improvements. The creation of a workgroup can be spontaneous and only last for the duration of the assigned task(s) or for long-term cooperation on a specific topic group.

Announcing workgroup progress

For all workgroup members:

How do workgroups organize their work collaboration?

The organization of work collaboration in workgroups is up to the group members.

In order to sync on the work progress of the workgroups, one member of the workgroup should attend the weekly tech committee meeting every once in a while and report on the work progress. Please join the Tech Committee's Discord channel #tech-committee.

I have a conflict with members of my workgroup. What do I do?

We trust the group members that the work within the working groups is characterized by mutual respect and a constructive feedback culture (see also our Code of Conduct. However, if there is a conflict within a workgroup that cannot be solved by the members, please join the Tech Committee's Discord channel #tech-committee and ask a member to support you with guidance.
