Contributor in the Spotlight

What it is

• highlight a contributor and they highlight their work
• different domain every month (e.g. art, coding)
• make community familiar with what contributors do

Why we do it

• a lot of work contributors do is "invisible"
• provide easy way for people to show their work
• thank contributors for their work
• highlight areas where people can contribute

How it works

• what you do:
  • create a new issue
  • fill out the template
  • select the label for the month you are applying for
  • done :)
• what we do:
  • go through all applications for the current month
  • select one application and prepare a blog post
  • create a blog post on news.opensuse.org on first monday of every month, 4PM UTC

Guidelines

• you want to show what you have been working on? --> apply
• applications need to be:
  • handed in until 15th of the month
  • written in English
  • about yourself, not someone else
• applications need to contain:
  • brief introduction of you
  • description/use cases of the contribution
  • picture of you OR a short video or image showcasing contribution
  • URL to the project OR proof of contribution
  • how does it relate to openSUSE?
  • what is special about it?
