@Andan-Eddy It looks like you are assigned to this issue. Did you still want to work on this or should I unassign you?

[Andan-Eddy]

I will not have time to work on this in the next two weeks- should I unassignment myself in this case?

[ExperimentsInHonesty]

@Andan-Eddy no you can keep it. And look! its been 2 weeks. 🤣

[ExperimentsInHonesty]

@Andan-Eddy checking in on you again on this issue.

[Andan-Eddy]

I won't have time to work on this before Christmas, and don't know when I will be able to after that. I unassigned myself. If I have time post-Christmas I will see if it still needs to be worked on.

[ExperimentsInHonesty]

Thanks @Andan-Eddy I'll stick it in the prioritized backlog on the CoP!

BOP Slack channel is in the Code for America slack space. Here is the signup link http://slack.codeforamerica.org If they don't approve your signup within a day, please let me know, so that I can ask them to do it.

Today we discovered the teams are using the term "Reach out" instead of outreach. More examples can be found by searching for the word reach
