Joint talk at KubeCon San Diego 2019 with Jorge Castro.
You’re new to Kubernetes and interested in contributing, but when you start poking through the community pages, you find a bunch of SIGs and so many meetings. What’s a SIG? Where should you start? Which meetings should you attend? How can you participate?
In this talk, Jorge and Dawn from SIG Contributor Experience will live out a week within the Kubernetes community by walking the audience through what happens in this busy community. As part of the day by day tour of the community, we will cover:
* Getting started and locating meeting calendars
* Finding and participating in SIGs
* Attending meetings and what to expect
* How to get involved
* Where to get help
New contributors, users interested in contributing, engineering managers whose teams are contributing, and anyone interested in learning about new ways to get involved in the Kubernetes community will benefit from attending.
