Intersect groups (working & special interest)

Working Groups

Working Groups are aligned to an Intersect Committee and their purpose.

Working Groups are:

  • Aligned to and overseen by a Committee,
  • Informal and open
  • Short-term
  • Focused around a defined purpose
  • Have an agreed output.

Any Member can request to be part of a Working Group, you can contact them through their discord channel.

If you have a proposal for a working group we recommend engaging with the committee you feel this aligns with in the first instance, if you are unsure you can start by forming a Special Interest Group and attending Committee meetings.

Please don't hesitate to contact the committee or the Committee Liaison if you have any questions.

Special Interest Groups

Intersect Special Interest Groups are a newer concept within Intersect.

Special Interest Groups are:

  • Groups of members who are all interested in a specific subject.
  • Informal and open
  • Formed around the subject of interest and
  • Not time-bound.
  • Able to convert to being a Working Group if appropriate.
  • Aligned to a committee / function if their subject aligns with a committee purpose

Anyone can request to be part of a Special Interest Group, you can contact them through their discord channel.

A link to form a Special Interest Group can be found here.

Technical / Product Working Groups

Technical Working Groups which are aligned to Cardano Infrastructure development, they were previously also known as Product Working Groups.

Technical Working Groups are:

  • Defined by the scope of the development they have been commissioned to deliver
  • Different in time length as this will depend on their development delivery and these timescales are confirmed with the Delivery Assurance Technical Steering Committee or Open Source Committee.
  • Have agreed and formalized milestones / key deliveries
  • More formal in nature as they have been "commissioned" to deliver a technical development.

More information and a list of Working Groups can be found in the Intersect Committees & Groups space
