Hello! This topic is for all applicants in the Outreachy 2024 round applying to the Community Architect internship, also known as “Create an outreach strategy, write documentation, run a marketing campaign, and measure results”. If you are an applicant applying to this Outreachy internship, read on!
As a part of the selection process, we are asking ALL applicants to complete five “pre-requisite” tasks during the application phase. All five of these tasks should be completed by the deadline of the final application. You can also work on other tasks besides these five, but all applicants should achieve these five tasks before the deadline for final applications. We will ONLY consider final applications from applicants who have completed all five pre-requisite tasks.
You can look all of them up conveniently using this GitLab link, but a short description of each pre-requisite task is provided below.
We hope this gives those of you looking for your next task some guidance on where to start and what to focus on! You can reply to this Fedora Discussion topic if you have general questions, but if you have questions about a specific task, it is better for you to comment on the specific GitLab issue below.
