Recruitment Text
The FOLIO Reporting SIG is looking for people to serve on our Review Board for the FOLIO Analytics query repository. Members of the review board commit to monitoring submissions to the repository and sharing the responsibility of providing reviews for submissions that come in. Reviewing a submission involves checking over the SQL code for basic style and syntax issues and making sure the query runs without error on a test environment.
Members commit to serving on the review board for a single major ("flower") release of the FOLIO core software. We are currently recruiting reviewers for the Orchid release, expected to go live in April of 2023. Review board members may continue to serve for more than one release, if desired.
The review board will be made up of no fewer than five members. Other individuals who are not members of the review board can also volunteer to provide reviews, as time permits.
Reviewers ensure that contributions to FOLIO Analytics abide by the repository's guidelines for contributing. Contributors will contact the review board directly when there is a submission in need of review [using a dedicated FOLIO analytics review board channel on the Metadb/LDP Slack]. Reviewers will outline any necessary changes clearly and communicate them to contributors in a timely manner.
Expected time commitment: [???] hours per week
Members of the review board will be recruited until the five spots are filled. An optional training will be scheduled when the review board is complete.
If you would like to serve as a member of the review board, please contact (the conveners? Nassib? both?)
Add additional info about release contents and timeline? Or just put this in training?
