1. I welcome the beginning of the moderation process, and I offer
thanks to the volunteers.
2. I support a refresh of the Diversity and Inclusion Special Committee.
Like moderation, it is a way to make everybody, anybody associated with
OSM, feel valued and respected.
3. On the survey - responding to Amanda:
>> Who's going to read through (& translate) the responses? Who's going to analyse exactly what people mean, and categorize it? Are you?
The question is probably rhetorical, but yes, if we have open ended
questions I would help to do translation and analysis of free text
answers. There is a well developed science of doing just that. I'm not
an expert on it, but somebody reading this is.
>> ... then never look at them and never analyze them. I think it's better to not pretend.
Agree. I have agonised over social survey questions many many times.
Short is good. Ask only what you are capable of using well.
>> Have you considered running for the OSMF Board? 😉
Let me deflect and say that I think our Board members are a heroine and
several heroes for taking on the work.
