Guidelines: Contributor Writing Program

[NAMRATA-WOKE]

What: Information and guidelines to share publicly with practitioners interested in building their thought leadership on green software and leveraging the GSF network and platform to reach a targeted and global audience.
Why: People need to have a clear understanding of what they are allowed and encouraged to submit to the foundation to increase their chances of getting their articles published. The more they don't know, the more frictious the experience will be and it will discourage people from creating content for the foundation.
When: As soon as possible.

This document will change as we learn and gather feedback from people who are contributing. Not set in stone.

@jawache We can be choosy about topics/ themes.

looks ok to me!

[zanete]

• @NAMRATA-WOKE to add a couple of more strongly worded lines about the fact that the articles cannot be a sales pitch
• @jawache / @seanmcilroy29 add an agenda item to the next OC meeting: "Review the GSF Contributing Writers' Guidelines"
• @zanete update the .md of the writers repo with guidelines once approved

[adamj89]

• @NAMRATA-WOKE to look into access for GSF members

@jawache @NAMRATA-WOKE I never have updated any .md files, was this approved and should this task be done?
