I will take the lead on populating/collecting info for team.trustroots.org /Paula
Ping Paula re. this. By Martin. Hlib thinks it’s a good idea to have a volunteer info page Further development of /teams might be good There’s a donation page (https://www.trustroots.org/donate) that is linked to at the bottom of any given page. Seeing as we don’t accept donations we should probably remove it as well as the links. /Martin A.
Anyone feeling like taking it? Otherwise open an issue for it on GitHub and leave it for now? /Martin A. There are references like Namecheap and DigitalOcean though, so perhaps restructuring rather than deleting? /Martin A. There’s also https://www.trustroots.org/donate/help and https://www.trustroots.org/donate/policy References are being worked on. I’m writing here to communicate it… maybe there more info on Monday /Loberto
One idea to promote good reference usage is to have a proper campaign educating people:
start with a good blog post about it, shared on all social media mention it in our next newsletter write in the FAQ “References good practices” write a wiki article about references, why giving a negative reference is not a bad thing Additional topics/questions
