You can find the list of existing working groups in the Ansible communication guide.
Anyone can request to start a Working Group, for any reason.
If you need only a forum group, please request it in the Requesting a forum group topic.
If you also need a real-time chat chennel, paste the following text into a community issue and replace the examples in brackets with your own working group info:
WORKING GROUP NAME: [ Example: unicorn ]
WORKING GROUP PURPOSE:
[ Example: This working group is to review ]
[ all Unicorn-related modules ]
[ ]
(keep it short and sweet)
AT LEAST TWO INITIAL WORKING GROUP MEMBERS:
[ Matrix/Libera.Chat IRC: gregdek / GitHub: @gregdek ]
[ Matrix/Libera.Chat IRC: rbergeron / GitHub: @robynbergeron ]
[ ]
(provide the Matrix/Libera.Chat IRC nicks AND GitHub IDs of your working group members, one name per line please)
REAL-TIME CHAT CHANNEL: [ Example: Matrix: #unicorn:ansible.com | Libera.Chat IRC: #ansible-unicorn ]
(if they don't exist yet, mention that they need to be created)
(you can start with a Matrix channel, then we can add an IRC channel if needed and bridge them)
For more information about real-time chat options, see the Ansible communication guide.
