After a recent meeting, neoclust ask me to write some suggestions
I think the text is quite good, but we need that mentors and apprentices become more proactive, The mentor should assign task with more frequency to their apprentices and the apprentice need to gain confidence to involve in helping to package new things or fix broken things in packages already existing.
I get some complaints from my pals about they feel ignored or not receive feedback from their mentors.
Also, I think we most evaluate the skills of each candidate to make short the travel to people with some previous knowledge of packaging or if he/she learn easier than others (perhaps people with IT skills).
One rejected suggestion was the apprentices be allowed to package backports, and as until the padawan level requires supervision of the mentor could be a good idea to keep motivated to the candidates. --katnatek (talk) 18:25, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
- Also we need a path to follow when mentor quit or let in limbo to their apprentice(s) by whatever motive
