Community Manager Update

[Kelly Choi <kelly.choi@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

Merry Christmas!

Just a quick update from myself.

Whilst I can’t speak for everyone in the community, I know we have valuable members who are committed to making the Xen Project successful. We are a strong and passionate community made up of individuals who consistently seek improvement in ways of working to ensure our open source project is welcoming and friendly. Our project is not only advancing the industry in many ways, but there are policies and governance practices that the community has helped shape to make it a better environment for all.

As such, I strongly condemn activities or communications that diminish our efforts on how great the community is. We may not be perfect, but collectively we are all working towards a common goal on how to be better.

This is a reminder to everyone to keep up the great work you are already doing, and for other individuals to refrain from making comments that could be seen as harmful to the community. Our communications can easily be misperceived and interpreted by others negatively, so if your messaging is not beneficial, please do not send these.

Our next steps will be to look at creating a community working or technical group of some sort, to help address concerns and drive direction within the community. Given this will be something that affects everyone, I’d like to ask for your patience as we scope out the specifics before asking for your feedback. I want to make sure we do this properly to ensure the process is something that benefits the community in the long run. As soon as I have the details, I will be sharing them with you all. 

I wish you all a great holiday and a Happy New Year! 

 

Many thanks,

Kelly Choi
