governance: add new collaborators XII

[Trott]

Previous round of onboarding: #5779

People who have not yet been onboarded but were nominated last time:

• @ronkorving
• @pmq20
• @eljefedelrodeodeljefe
• @estliberitas
• @JacksonTian
• @ralt

Last onboarding session took place in the early AM hours (2AM Tokyo) for East Asia. I'd like to specifically try to have a friendlier time for that area of the world this go-around.

Here's a Doodle poll. Please check off times that will work for you. http://doodle.com/poll/3kz3xv23cxf63i3u

[jasnell]

No objections to anyone in that list :-)

[evanlucas]

yay! Thanks @Trott!!

[estliberitas]

@Trott wow thx, and I checked the times.

[JacksonTian]

What's the timezone? I am GMT+0800(Beijing).

[pmq20]

Thanks for arranging the meeting. The time slots are especially friendly to Asia :) I have responded on doodle.

[ronkorving]

Yeah, as @JacksonTian pointed out, timezone is not specified again. That went wrong before as well. Should we really be filling this in right now or does this need correcting first?

[benjamingr]

+1 for @ralt , have a great onboarding everyone :)

Also, I'm surprised to learn @eljefedelrodeodeljefe is not a collaborator already, he's been pulling more weight than most of us anyway - definitely a +1 for that as well.

We should probably wait on @ralt until they gets a bit more activity, imo. :)

+1 for @eljefedelrodeodeljefe

[Trott]

@ronkorving @JacksonTian I enabled timezone support in Doodle (or at least I thought I did!), so it should be showing you the times in your local timezone. All the times in the poll are 4PM PDT and 9PM PDT, which is 11PM UTC and 4AM UTC. Is it displaying the times in your local timezone or do I need to issue an apology and try again?

[Trott]

Ugh, yes, it looks like I messed it up. Sorry everyone! Let's try again. My apologies. (How many experienced technologists does it take to get a Doodle poll right the first time? Probably not many as long as it isn't me or Evan? :-P )

Let's do it again, but with this link: http://doodle.com/poll/ty75kd67g9yuxbxi

[indutny]

+1 for @ronkorving

[ronkorving]

Signed up. I'm sorry my options are quite limited (only 2 slots), but I'm going on vacation after the slots I've filled in. I hope it works out.

[pmq20]

Signed up.

[Trott]

Thanks, everyone! Let's go with:

• UTC 4AM Tuesday (April 26)
• San Francisco 9PM Monday (April 25)
• Tokyo 1PM Tuesday (April 26)
• Beijing Noon Tuesday (April 26)
• Berlin 6AM Tuesday (April 26)
• Moscow 7AM Tuesday (April 26)

(I got all the dates/times correct, yes?)

More to come soon!

[ronkorving]

Tokyo, Tuesday 1PM works for me 👍
Anything we need to do to prepare? How does this work exactly?

[Trott]

@ronkorving I don't think you need to do anything to prepare. We get on a Google Hangout and go over stuff. It usually takes around an hour. I would block of 90 minutes just to be safe.

The outline for the onboarding process is at https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/master/doc/onboarding.md if you want to take a look and get a bit of a head start.

[ronkorving]

Have you found everyone on Google, or will you publish a hangout URL somewhere?

[Trott]

@ronkorving I'm sending you and the others an email right now. You're the only one I didn't find on Google, actually. But we can take this over to email...

[ronkorving]

I got your email at work. Am hoping you can switch it to my private email address (I sent you a response) :) Sorry for the hassle.

[estliberitas]

@Trott got the message and invite, and thanks for onboarding doc.

[Trott]

Onboarding happened a few hours ago and everyone has added themselves to the README. Closing!
