Current outreach requests

Since early 2018 the outreach request administration has moved to Meistertask. If you have not registered to the outreach board on Meistertask: please do so by following the link below. You will then be able to see ongoing outreach requests, whom is responsible for them and what needs to be done to get them fully organised.

Register to the "outreach board" on Meistertask.

Old outreach requests

This table is an attempt to organize all outreach events and allocate one person responsible for dealing with them.

REQUEST = what is requested?
TOA = when did the request arrive and how (email to outreach/phone/other etc)
WHO = who in the outreach committee will deal with it
RE = has the sender been sent a conformation of processing the request (Not Applicable before September 12 2017)
PROGRESS = in short, what's the status
FINISHED = fill in YES as soon as everything has been taken care of [not necessarily when the event has happened, but when the committee doesn't have to care about it anymore].

NOTE: This page is not being updated anymore as we have moved this record to Meistertalk.
