Release Naming

@Ned Batchelder (Deactivated)

We need to pick names, and have a process for picking names.

• https://hort.ifas.ufl.edu/database/lppi/index_common.shtml

• https://list.fandom.com/wiki/Trees_and_Shrubs

• https://www.treenames.net/common_tree_names.html

• https://www.gardentags.com/plant-encyclopedia/a-to-z/q

• https://www.wood-database.com/

• https://eukaryotewritesblog.com/2021/05/02/theres-no-such-thing-as-a-tree/

We will pick one by Jan 15th, possibly with rank-choice voting of names suggested by the group.

non-openedx repos

@Peter Pinch

The olive release surfaced a number of repos that are (still) outside the openedx org, e.g edx-sga. How/do we address these?

• Criteria for bringing repos into openedx:

  • Going forward, we would like them to be maintained according to the Maintainer’s Pilot guidelines

  • https://docs.openedx.org/en/latest/developers/references/tools_for_maintainers.html

  • https://docs.openedx.org/en/latest/developers/how-tos/maintain-a-repo.html
