Communication

We're always around for a chat in our public gitter channel: https://gitter.im/WhitakerLab/the-turing-way

In addition, you can reach the team members through their preferred way of communication:

As most team members do not work full time on the Turing Way, it might take some time until your query or contribution is addressed - especially if expert knowledge is needed. The core project team will have weekly update meetings on Wednesdays from 2-4 pm either on slack or as videocalls on zoom.

Project management

Issues

  • Once completed, issues should be closed immediately. By adding closes #issue or something similar in a comment on a pull request, merging the pull request will close the issue automatically.
  • The team will have a weekly catch up to go triage on open issues, update the project board and agree on priorities for the next week.

Pull requests

  • Pull requests should be reviewed in a timely manner.
  • When reviewing a pull request, please do not use the "request a change" function but comment on the change or make a pull request to the file that should be merged.

Commitments

All The Turing Way team members commit to

  • making the implicit explicit by documenting their work
  • dedicating time to update contribution guidelines and other core documents needed to facilitate collaboration
  • feed back on issues in open source software used throughout the Turing Way by opening an issue in those open source packages and trying to fix them (including documentation)
