Action items


Karen -

Development commitment time

Active work on WG's - 

Problem:  How do you measure Active Work on Working Group?  IG's?

Annie -

Conference Organizer - program committee -  Chair is more time than committee (quantify leadership roles?)

WG's and IG's - standing committees like Steering COmmittees - can be tied to organizing workshops, conferences - Samvera COnnect, Camps - that's all time - depends on roles

COmmittee - may be ad hoc or over a shorter period of time - 


For Rubric

Contributions to Code and Code development

Organizing COmmunity as a whole

Marketing - someone who proposes sessions at conferences - for Samvera as a whole - Standing Committees 


Partner

Considered a partner - someone should be attending meetings a certain number of times per year.  

Contribution model - Partner/ Member - doesn't hurt to have Members/ Supporters - contribute money and work

Members/ Supporters - Possibly no development 


Hard for orgs to give cash or time - Do you want an org like that to be part of the Community?  What sort of contribution do you want to be in their means?

What is the contribution of WGBH if minimum cash and lack of ability to provide FTE's


Given the Roadmap - what are the things that people can contribute (by size and ability to contribute) - 


For each item - range of hours per month 

Value per item (1 low value - 5 being high value)


Value - expectations back to community



Other models:

What is the approximate annual budget for a member institution?  

What is the range of budgets for an institution/ for their IT?
