Frequently Asked Questions

Who can attend community calls?

Anyone can attend! If you are interested in in the Jupyter ecosystem, or open source and scientific computing in any capacity, this is a place for you.

How can I join in?

You can join a community call in a few different ways.

  • Join us from the call link on the README.md at the time of the call to attend. You don’t have to turn on your camera, speak, or do anything but listen unless you want to.
  • Share something with the community by adding to the agenda (linked on the README.md) before the call. This can be a quick announcement or a longer discussion, demonstration, or activity.
  • Help host or organize a community call. Follow the instructions on the README.md to reach out. You can use the resources in this repo, and you don’t even have to run the call alone unless you want to.

What can I share at a community call?

Anything to do with the Jupyter ecosystem is fair game for a community call share (as long as it fits with the code of conduct)! Some ideas include:

  • A project you worked on (whether you were a project manager, writer, developer, designer, or contributor in any other way)
  • One of your favorite projects made by others in the community
  • Your favorite Jupyter notebook(s)
  • How you use a particular Jupyterlab extension
  • A new extension you developed for Jupyterlab
  • A question to discuss
  • The way(s) you like to use Jupyter projects
  • Something we’ve never seen before

Are there rules?

There is a code of conduct. As a Jupyter event, everyone in the call is expected to follow the Project Jupyter Code of Conduct.

It is also good practice to keep your microphone muted when you are not talking so it is easier to hear one another.

What happened at past calls?

Community calls are recorded, so you can find out what happened on our YouTube playlist or read the notes on the Project Jupyter community documentation.

We try to update these sources as quickly as possible, so please be patient if you can’t find the most recent call.

Why don’t you have a call at a reasonable time for my timezone?

It would be wonderful to have a community call at a good time for you! Right now, this is an issue of the availability of hosts. If you or someone you know would be interested in hosting the call at another time, please reach out following the instruction on the README.md.

What is this repository and how do I use it?

This repository is designed to collect community call information for community members to easily find. It also is the way people organizing calls make sure all tasks get done. If you are organizing a call, you can find out how to use the repo here.

Can I share commercial products at Jupyter community calls?

While there are not any formal guidelines for this from prior hosts, we've definitely had shares about open-source projects that are tied commercial services in some way. Generally, topics of this kind can be welcome.

If presenting something with commercial ties, please adhere to the following guidelines:

  • It shouldn't feel like an advertisement. Paid elements are not the sole or main focus of the share. How you build on or integrate with open Jupyter projects is a more community-oriented way to frame your work.
  • Presenters need to be honest and upfront about the commercial relationship. Depending on the case, that could be as simple as saying the name of the company you're presenting on behalf of to saying that there are paid features on the project.
  • If you are looking for feedback, it's responsible to be clear how the feedback will be used and/or who else will be hearing this feedback if relevant.
  • Remember this is a public and recorded call. What is shared here is not private.
