As described in the Ambassador Revamp process, one of the goals is to ensure that every team has equal stakeholding in the revamp. To make this change more transparent and open for the community to understand, and to include each Mindshare team in the rebuilding process. .
The Taskforce would request the CommOps team to develop interview questions and conduct research interviews with active members/leads of each Mindshare team. The goal of the survey will be to accurately document their current responsibilities as well as any goals/ideas they may have for the future. Lastly, the CommOps team will work with each Mindshare to ensure there is one point of reference on line for each team that include the following points.
List: Team name Summary Link Some indication of it’s not a zombie
Optional: Preferred Asynch communication channel (mailing list, discussion.fp.o, etc) Preferred Synch (IRC channel, telegram, etc, none) Issue tracker Docs Meetings Other
The Fedora Docs team will help with the Docs process. This ticket is to track the person who will be working on the ticket, the progress and communications. We would like to set up a meeting as well with the CommOps folks who will work on this to provide additional context/support and answer any questions.
Metadata Update from @bt0dotninja: - Issue assigned to bt0dotninja

Sorry (again) for the delay :persevere:
Hi @bt0dotninja, no worries, this looks great! We also need to ask for all the info I put into the description. I combined mine and yours together and tried to make it a bit more readable, see below.

Summary: The Community operations team is working with sub-projects and teams to improve communitation, onboarding and generate creative solutions for common issues.
Preferred asynchronous communication channel (mailing list, discussion.fp.o, etc.): * https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/c/project/commops
Preferred synchronous (IRC channel, telegram, etc, none): #fedora-commops on Freenode @fedoracommops on Telegram
Issue tracker: * https://pagure.io/fedora-commops
Documentation: * https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/commops/
Meetings times and locations (if applicable): * https://apps.fedoraproject.org/calendar/meeting/9812/
Define the current responsibilities of your Team: * Community Operations (CommOps) provides tools, resources, and utilities for Fedora's sub-projects to improve effective communication.
What is the greatest strength of your team? * CommOps member's skill sets allow creative solutions to a myriad of problems.
What is the greatest weakness of your team? A series of lucky events (After all the Fedora Community evolves quickly) generate new groups or individuals taking many of the main activities of CommOps. by example: The Community Blog editor activities were carried almost completely for bcotton. Making IRC-Telegram bridges is now done for the TeleIRC SIG. * The onboarding of new contributors is now done for the Join SIG. So CommOps is reducing its action field and relevance.
What are the long term plans for the team (if applicable)? * Update and generate metrics tools for the whole community then don't need technical knowledge to be used.
Is there anything you can consider a "Mission Statement" for your Team? * No
Is there a specific task or issue that your Team needs help for from the Mindshare Committee? * No, the revamp process will make commops active in many areas again,
Is there some function/activity you would like to see your Team doing that they aren't doing currently? * More tooling and solutions for the community.
Mentored Project (in the future I would like to see this change into outreach projects because things like hactoberfest which I do not think need mentor would also be included. All the outreach -> projects related initiatives can be a part of this.. but a future thing!)
Summary: Fedora Project participates in multiple mentored project programs and is actively looking for new mentors, projects, and programs that fit the criteria and can help the project/community grow.
Preferred asynchronous communication channel (mailing list, discussion.fp.o, etc): * summer-coding@lists.fedoraproject.org
Preferred synchronous (IRC channel, telegram, etc, none): * #fedora-summer-coding@Freenode.irc.net
Issue tracker: * https://pagure.io/mentored-projects/issues
Documentation: * https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/mentored-projects/mentored_project/Info/
Meetings times and locations (if applicable): * None
Define the current responsibilities of your Team: Ensure timely participation of the org in GSoC and Outreachy Facilitate with anything to make the participation and projects a success
Define the current goals of your Team: * Enable contribution outside of the mentored-project timeline and sustain participants as the community members. Also, look and participate in other outreach programs to promote the project.
What is the greatest strength of your team? * Every mentored-project submitted (and accepted) has a defined goal/outcome and is not a shot in the dark.
What is the greatest weakness of your team? * No proper process to guide mentors on how to make students a community member and not just get the work done.
What are the long term plans for the team (if applicable)? Focus more on diversity and inclusive aspects of outreach participation. Select projects that the community wants and brings value to the community. * Projects that can help with Infra technical debts
Is there a specific task or issue that your Team needs help for from the Mindshare Committee? * Budget for outreachy (afaik, often pulled from diversity section)
