Current Content Difficult to determine what was the latest activity of the WG when viewing the wiki page of a WG, especially for observers. |
There should be a "latest updates" section on the WG. As such its difficult for the observer to see what is happening | All Working Groups should have labels and all pages created by a WG should be labelled as such. Wiki Activity can be limited to a pages with a specific label. | main wiki page of a WG.
Given labels are user defined and the importance of consistency,
With Labels, confluence macros to show activity changes by label could be used.

Interconnectivity The 'silos' of the working groups appear to be divorced from other interconnected working groups. | Working Groups need to have a reality check in checking with WG on Metrics, Transparency, Outreach etc to make sure that their deliverables can be quantified and measured. | |||
Gaps or Vacancies The missing in action volunteers makes groups ineffective and dyfunctional |
A reward system needs to be implemented to compensate those that are in attendance and active in WG | |||
