Sandbox Application - Project Champions section needs update

Open edrob999 opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Attn @TheFoxAtWork (this is the issue discussed in Slack)

  • The Sandbox application has a section "Project champions"
  • The tooltip is "Please list any people who are part of CNCF leadership (TOC, TAGS, etc.) who can endorse or answer questions about your project."

The problem is: The tooltip encourages applicants to list any CNCF leaders who are familiar with the project. The leaders may be informed, but may not consider themselves a "Project champion".

Recommendation Change the section title to: "CNCF Contacts" Change tooltip to: "Please list any people within CNCF leadership (TOC, TAGS, etc.) who are familiar with, and can answer questions about your project."

I believe this more closely aligns with the intention of the section, and encourages CNCF people to give balanced feedback to TOC.

Thanks @edrob999 !

TOC & Community - we've had other suggested changes to the Sandbox application form

  • updating which fields should be required but currently are not
  • improving clarity of fields

Are there others?

Thank you @edrob999 - that's a great recommendation.

@TheFoxAtWork - agree with the other the suggestions. It will help to ensure completeness of the application by updating the required fields.

@angellk @TheFoxAtWork Typo alert: in the live version: "can questions about your project" should be "can answer questions about your project"
