This is a onboarding HowTo for new users.
For a description of the Onboarding Process see the documentation in Concepts.

Welcome

You have just been onboarded and got new accounts to nextcloud and/or openroject.
Here are some hints to help you get on board easily.

Messaging

the preferred option is to use the Element Messenger and send a message to @tomroth:matrix.org.
I will then invite you to our rooms and you can talk to our bot.
This is the best way to get help.
Also i will grant permissions, assign you to groups and projects, etc.
This is being automated in the Onboarding.

Mailinglist

We have a mailinglist, where we announce changes and news.
To subscribe send a mail to openheidelberg+subscribe@groups.io
The archive of the group is visible to anyboby.
You can follow us via an RSS Feed

Onboarding Appointment

You can make an appointment for an onboarding session.

Events and Meetings

In HowTo see Kalender in der Nextcloud to integrate our public Calendar into your local Calendar App. There is an ongoing project to provide Event Information via MCP Server Openheidelberg
You can check out the chat bot when it is not being worked on.

Tasks

We manage our tasks with openproject. This is mainly aimed at coders.
See Working with openproject to get the most out of the tool.
Also openproject is used to manage our Onboarding process.
In the onboarding project you can complete your user info.
The skills and interest section will be used to map tasks and users in the future.
Giving us some bullet points there would greatly help with this project.

Collaboration

We use Our Nextcloud to collaborate.
Check out the HowTo index for a growing list of documentations.
