If you are looking for how-to resources produced by the TAG, please visit [contribute.cncf.io](https://contribute.cncf.io/) or have a look at the contributor, governance, and related [templates](https://github.com/cncf/project-template). For people new to this space, you can learn more about the purpose, objectives, and responsibilities of [CNCF TAGs](https://github.com/cncf/toc/blob/main/tags/README.md). The [TAG Contributor Strategy charter](https://github.com/cncf/toc/blob/main/tags/tag-charters/contributor-strategy.md/) outlines the scope of our group activities. To get involved, our [Contributing Guide](/CONTRIBUTING.md) lays out more details. ## Meetings We have one general meeting a month, along with meetings for our working groups. Go to [the CNCF calendar](https://tockify.com/cncf.public.events/monthly?search=Contributor+Strategy) to see when we meet next. - [Meeting minutes and agenda](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QKRyr5CNXx5Uc1nzMlyTq-gRKCIrBiYWGsiRZu_Dmyc/edit) - All meetings are recorded and can be accessed on the [CNCF TAG Contributor Strategy](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCqKWkTM2pkmLwXaj-7AvcA) Youtube channel. - Meeting Link: [zoom.us/my/cncftagcontributorstrategy](https://zoom.us/my/cncftagcontributorstrategy) - Meeting ID: **574 406 1161** ## Communicating with Us Anyone is welcome to join our open discussions of TAG Contributor Strategy projects and share news related to the group's mission and charter. Much of the work of the group happens outside of TAG Contributor Strategy meetings and we encourage project teams to share progress updates or post questions in these channels: - [Mailing list](https://lists.cncf.io/g/cncf-tag-contributor-strategy) - The mailing list is used for decisions, announcements, and broad communications on record for the entire TAG. - [#tag-contributor-strategy](https://cloud-native.slack.com/archives/CT6CWS1JN) on [CNCF Slack](https://slack.cncf.io/) - Real time communication is great! Chat with us here but we might ask you to open an issue or remind us on the mailing list so we can have a record. - [File an Issue](https://github.com/cncf/tag-contributor-strategy) - Working on a project? Have an idea for something we/you should work on? Talk about a change you'd like to propose? - [Attend our meetings](https://tockify.com/cncf.public.events/monthly?search=Contributor+Strategy) - We have a general TAG meeting once a month and many of our Working Groups / Teams also have regular meetings. We'd love to have you join us! ## Leadership TAG Chairs, Tech Leads and TOC Liaisons are listed on the [CNCF Technical Advisory Groups ("TAGs") information page](https://github.com/cncf/toc/blob/main/tags/cncf-tags.md). ## Working Groups And Teams TAG Contributor Strategy has working groups and teams to effectively collaborate and coordinate efforts towards achieving common goals and objectives, as well as to distribute tasks and responsibilities among its members for efficient execution. This approach allows for a more streamlined and organized approach to managing complex projects within the CNCF ecosystem. ### Governance WG [Charter](/governance/README.md) ### Contributor Growth WG [Charter](/contributor-growth/README.md) ### Mentoring WG [Charter](/mentoring/README.md) ### Maintainer's Circle [Charter](/maintainers-circle/README.md) ### Inclusiveness Team Status: [Proposed](https://github.com/cncf/tag-contributor-strategy/issues/365) ### Deaf and Hard Of Hearing WG [Charter](/deaf-and-hard-of-hearing/README.md) ## Project Board All the activities of TAG Contributor Strategy as well as our Working Groups and Initiatives are tracked on our [Project Board](https://github.com/orgs/cncf/projects/25).
