Tássia Camões Araújo

Tassia is a Debian contributor since the early 2000's, when from the server's room at her university, she and her friends decided to change the world. Since then she works in this "project" and Debian is likely among her contributions of greatest impact to the world. She became a DD in 2014, and since 2018 teaches computer science at Vanier College, Montreal.

Accepted Talks:

New contributors onboarding

Every day during DebCamp, just after breakfast time, have a 1-h period for new contributors to have basic tutorials on topics that would facilitate their onboarding process. Some of the topics in the menu:

Using Debian: Debian installations, Live CDs, Virtual machines, containers
Communication: Mailing lists, IRC, Matrix
Accounts creation: wiki, salsa, contributors.d.o
Bugs: BTS and salsa issues
Encryption 101 and why/where/how it is used in Debian
Packaging clinic: having your packaging questions answered

And of course, participants would be encouraged to bring their own topics of interest, and those would be added to the menu (and maybe to the “new contributors survival kit” presentation).
