* Start a mailing list
** Step 1: Create mailing list
*** AL: Should this be a different list than events@oh?
** Step 2: Invite community-builders
*** Make list of people to invite (OSCTC event organizers, other people we know who might be interested).
Line 24:
** Step 2: Wait a week, announce the results to list.
** Step 3: Have the IRC meetup.
 
== Community for past attendees ==
 
We could do a better job of reaching out to OSCTC attendees and inviting them to be an ongoing part of the OpenHatch community.
 
Plan:
 
* Reach out to individual attendees.
** Step 1: At events through observation, and via the exit survey, note which attendees seem most enthusiastic about open source.
*** Email them within one month of the event specifically inviting them to become more involved by:
**** Hanging out on IRC and attending IRC meetups (see below).
**** Doing OPW/GSoC/other internship.
**** Doing additional curated first tasks.
** Step 2: When tracking contributions made at events, follow up with students.
*** If their contribution was finished + accepted, give them feedback/congratulations.
*** If it's still in progress, encourage them to keep working on it.
 
* Monthly IRC meetup.
** Step 1: Select an ongoing time to have an hour-long meetup.
** Step 2: Find community members (such as representatives of GSoC, OPW, but also other groups) to come talk a bit about the opportunities their projects represent.
** Step 3: Announce and invite people.
 
* Use alumni list more frequently.
** Step 1: Monthly email to list approx 3-4 days before IRC meetup, including:
*** Curated first tasks.
*** Opportunities (OPW, GSoC, etc)
*** Reminding them of the IRC meetup.
