This is the current list of projects that members of the Debian Women community are currently working on, or plan to work on in the near future. If you are interested in helping out with any of this, contact Erinn or Helen and we will put you in touch with the people who are already involved in that area.

• Translate the Debian Women website into other languages
• Make a page for the website about "How to talk to people about Debian Women"
• Design a poster, or other publicity material, for Debian Women
• Write articles. Some potential magazines we might want to submit articles about DW to are Bitch and Ms. (I'll add links later -- Erinn)
• Write an Events page for the website and keep track of conference experiences, upcoming conferences, and DW events. DW events might include things like tutorials we have on IRC, meetings, gatherings, etc. (It's very likely that I'm doing this soon -- Christine)
• Write a new mentoring webpage (nice webpage with forms and stuff, plus a backend that connects to a database of mentors and mentees is needed - talk to Helen Faulkner, Matthew Palmer or Erinn Clark for more info)

• Design a reportbug-based web interface for the BTS, to make it easier for users to submit bugs without having a mailer configured. More info over at ReportbugWeb

Tutorials

This is a list of tutorials we'd like to see happen:

• Autotools
• Library packaging (perhaps something to accompany Junichi's written tutorial or based on it?)
• Python / PyGTK (Lars will be giving this at some point)
• Buildd "stuff" eg, interpreting logs, filing bugs about FTBFS' (vorlon has offered to take care of this one)

Interviews

I (Erinn) think it would be interesting to interview various people in the Debian project, especially those that are part of a team, about what all is involved in the work they do.

Ideally it would illustrate the internal processes teams go through, organizational structures, how to get involved, and whatever else comes to light. I suppose that potentially it'd give people an idea of where to start, what they'd be qualified to do, and possibly give people in other teams some ideas that would contribute to their own efficiency.

Some examples:

• A Release Manager (vorlon?)

• Someone from the kernel team (trave11er?

• Someone from the GNOME team (jordi?)
• Someone from the KDE team (dato?)
• Someone from the FTPMaster team (neuro loves publicity)
• dpkg and apt hackers (Keybuk and mdz?)
• X Strike Force (gravity would probably be interested)
• debbugs (aj?)
• ... etc.
