[08:30] to develop each course um we take uh [08:35] three steps three important step to [08:38] develop each course. One is to write [08:41] script. Why we write script is because [08:44] script help you to plan and help you to [08:47] be focused when you want to record the [08:49] video. Also we okay I have message on [08:53] the chat section.

So, we are actually what we [19:27] are doing at the moment is a follow up [19:29] on ongoing courses. [19:32] We have ongoing courses here in [19:38] the K education project. So we are [19:44] um following up on all those ongoing [19:46] courses to see [19:49] um what [19:52] is going on. [19:55] Some courses have been assigned to [19:57] people. Some courses are free. [20:00] I was mentioning before there are [20:02] different ways that we can you can [20:05] contribute to the chaos education like [20:08] you can write a script [20:13] um prepare a slide deck and then record [20:16] a video of that course [20:20] and you can also suggest a topic [20:23] over here there are some topics that [20:25] were suggested to by different people [20:29] and those courses If they want to work [20:31] on the courses, we assign them. We I [20:33] assign the courses to them. But if they [20:36] don't want to work on their courses, um [20:40] you can assign to anybody. So we accept [20:43] different ways to contribute to suggest [20:46] a topic you feel like will help people [20:50] in your community. might not be in your [20:52] community in other communities like [20:56] presently I know uh in my ecosystem in [21:00] Africa I know the type of topics because [21:03] it's a glowing and I mean a growing and [21:06] developing country we have around us but [21:10] there are some topics I know that are [21:12] unique to people in this kind of [21:14] environment so you can suggest a topic [21:19] if you want to work on that topic you [21:20] are free. [21:22] You prepare um [21:28] the script. I can show you some scripts [21:31] we have here. [21:34] You can see we have a template that will [21:36] help you for each topic. So we have a [21:41] template [21:43] to help you uh on this is a sample [21:50] a sample of a script. I can go back [21:57] get a template and contribute MD file. [22:04] Please feel free to ask me or stop me at [22:06] any time please. [22:16] Okay. Yes. This is a sample [22:19] of a script. [22:21] This is a sample. [22:23] Why we write script is to for us to have [22:26] a guide when you want to record the [22:30] video. [22:33] And then it's also help you to [22:35] um [22:37] prepare a slide deck because normally [22:39] for each video we use um [22:45] we use u [22:53] what what is it called a slide a slide [22:55] deck. So the script help you prepare the [22:58] the slide deck and then you use the [23:01] slide deck to present or record the [23:04] course [23:06] and we have template for both the script [23:10] and the slide. Then for recording [23:13] we use chaos zoom for recording. [23:17] And then one other thing is all this [23:20] process there we have reviewers that we [23:23] review the courses review the script [23:27] review the slide deck to help you uh [23:31] contribute. [23:33] So I don't know if you're able to speak [23:35] at the moment. If you're able to speak, [23:37] please feel free to. But if you're not, [23:40] like I said, feel free to shout me up on [23:44] the Slack channel.

[24:01] So um I don't anybody you have a [24:04] question might want to ask please feel [24:07] free [24:19] any question at all [24:24] okay no question at the moment so we'll [24:26] go ahead all right so we have [24:31] introducing new courses. So here [24:35] we are looking for new courses that will [24:37] help [24:40] contributors in open source. If you have [24:44] an idea of an opensource topic that will [24:46] help contributors, I mean not just [24:50] contributors that will help anyone that [24:53] is interested in opensource or anyone [24:57] that is interested [25:00] Okay, please go ahead. [25:26] Okay. [25:31] Okay. Let me assume that nobody is [25:33] talking. [25:34] Let's continue. [25:37] And again, if you have uh any suggestion [25:40] you think, okay, this will help [25:43] your education, please feel free.

[26:17] So yes, I think that's all I have. So [26:21] the major thing is that we are looking [26:24] for other topics. We want to develop [26:27] courses I mean those topics and add them [26:31] to the girls education project to help [26:35] people and if you're so in other [26:38] communities where you feel that people [26:40] can benefit from the courses we've [26:42] already developed feel free to share [26:45] with them [26:46] you can share it in any community and [26:48] ask them to go through it and see [26:51] courses that can help them not just [26:54] about open source but about other things [26:57] in development and in tech. We are [27:01] getting there. Also, if they're [27:04] interested to contribute, they're free [27:06] to come and come in, suggest a topic, [27:09] pick up a topic to contribute to. One [27:13] other thing is you can actually um [27:19] contribute with someone. Either somebody [27:22] write a script, [27:24] then you write the [27:28] prepare the the slide deck or you record [27:30] the video. You can do that.

Community health depends on [29:34] security. Okay. [29:37] Um K want to know how is the education [29:41] courses were developing [29:45] as why is this secured? I think that [29:47] should be your question. Okay. [29:53] Okay, [29:55] let me get to the questions. Feel free [29:58] to ask these days. Okay. Community of [30:02] the best of community security. All [30:04] right. Privacy is a basic concern that [30:07] is being dishonored by our daily [30:09] communication [30:11] channels. I think a good education thing [30:14] can be how is this secure? [30:20] Yes. [30:21] I do not feel free [30:24] and you can't make me be asking more. [30:28] Okay, we get you [30:32] and Okay, I do not feel free and you [30:35] can't make me by asking more. We can [30:38] make more secure decision going ahead [30:40] though. I will see you in Slack. [30:44] Thank you for the discussion. How is [30:46] this secure? Okay, K I I will need you [30:49] to ask more clarity to your question. [30:58] Okay. [31:00] And you mean the ces were developing or [31:04] what which what are you actually asking? [31:06] How is this secured? [31:14] Okay. How is the zoom secure? how is [31:16] Slack is. Okay, now let me explain that [31:19] to you. Our Zoom is [31:23] actually is a Linux Foundation [31:26] uh [31:28] is controlled and managed by Linux [31:31] Foundation because Kios is [31:35] Kios project is a Linux uh Linux [31:38] foundation project. [31:41] Do you understand? So security is [31:44] actually one of the most important thing [31:46] we talk about in chaos and we manage [31:50] for the courses where we are we are [31:52] developing [31:54] we actually think about all those [31:56] security and we consider them we build [31:59] metrics of security. We have developed a [32:01] course of security and those are things [32:04] we put into consideration everything we [32:06] do. So this particular zoom is not like [32:09] really just managed by anybody. [32:11] The zoom we use [32:14] the the [32:16] everything about it security is managed [32:20] by leaders foundation so it's highly [32:23] secured [32:30] then our slack also [32:34] there [32:36] oh okay I see you [32:40] Now, [32:43] so is anything doesn't make you insecure [32:47] here? [32:52] Please feel free. [33:10] Okay, I get you. [33:18] So, um, [33:21] what's the solution you're trying to [33:23] pro That's what's the solution you're [33:26] trying to propose here? [33:43] Okay, I see. And that has to be like um [33:47] outside this meeting. [33:54] Okay, we can talk more on that. um you [33:57] can reach me in Slack and then we can [34:00] talk more on that. Like I said, to the [34:03] best of my knowledge, I know that we [34:05] don't personally h like we're not [34:08] personally in charge of the slack, but [34:12] the Lance Foundation is in charge of [34:13] that. And then every other thing that [34:16] other information that I do not have, [34:22] information that I do not have, I ask I [34:26] join the curios uh weekly meeting to ask [34:30] that question. [34:32] If I'm seeing it as a problem, I propose [34:35] and then I state the problem I'm seeing [34:38] and then propose a solution if I have [34:40] one. [34:42] and it left for the entire chaos [34:44] community to go through it during that [34:47] uh chaos community meeting on Tuesdays [34:50] at 6 p.m. my time. That's 6 p.m. what [34:55] it takes the community to go through [34:58] what I'm proposing and then get a [35:00] feedback. [35:03] I mean make suggestion and then see [35:05] through how they can handle anything [35:07] that is not um in line with my [35:11] understanding. So said their code is [35:13] open source and run in a browser instead [35:16] of in a closed source desktop [35:19] that can access any of your files [35:23] filter [35:26] industry [35:28] encrypted videos. [35:32] Okay. I'm just seeing [35:36] what you're saying at this I think uh [35:40] outside this education meeting this is [35:43] like a focus a different focus so we can [35:46] actually like take it uh uh and discuss [35:50] more about it. just send me this [35:52] information on track on Slack and we can [35:56] discuss more about this and then we [35:58] could see [36:01] how we can [36:05] we can approach and solve this. [36:08] um [36:10] the decision of the platform to use for [36:13] chaos project I say if you can [36:16] understand me very well [36:18] um [36:20] can be discussed with the general group. [36:24] Okay. So um moving forward, [36:28] we have some reminders that we need to [36:34] I need to bring up to uh [36:38] to need to bring up to us. One is the [36:41] daylight the daylight savings [36:44] is still going is ongoing not just are [36:47] coming at this point I think is uh is [36:51] ongoing.
