Hi X!

First of all, congratulations and welcome to TPI (Tor Project, Inc.) and the TPA (Admin) team. Exciting times!

We'd like you to join us on your first orientation meeting on TODO Month day, TODO:00 UTC (TODO:00 your local time), in this BBB room:

https://bbb.torproject.net/

TODO: fill in room

Also note that we have our weekly check-in on Monday at 18:00UTC as well.

Make sure you can attend the meeting and pen it down in your calendar. If you cannot make it for some reason, please do let us know as soon as possible so we can reschedule.

Here is the agenda for the meeting:

TODO: copy paste from the OnBoardingAgendaTemplate, and append:

4. Stakeholders for your work:
   • TPA
   • web team
   • consultants
   • the rest of Tor...
5. How the TPA team works:
   • weekly meetings
   • communications: email / IRC / BBB / Signal group, talk about right to disconnect
   • support: "star of the week" shift rotation
   • issues: TPA board, web board
   • wiki: service list, policies, roadmap
6. TPA systems crash course through the new-person wiki page

Note that the "crash course" takes 20 to 30 minutes, so if you ran out of time doing the rest of the page, reschedule, don't rush.

Please have a look at the security policy. Don't worry if you don't comply yet, that will be part of your onboarding.

You will shortly receive the following credentials, in an OpenPGP encrypted email, if you haven't already:

• an LDAP account
• a Nextcloud account
• a GitLab account

If you believe you already have one of those account (GitLab, in particular), do let us know.

You should do the following with these accesses:

1. hook your favorite calendar application with your Nextcloud account
2. configure an SSH key in LDAP
3. login to people.torproject.org (aka perdulce) and download the known hosts, see the jump host documentation on how to partially automate this
4. if you need an IRC bouncer, login to chives.torproject.org and setup a screen/tmux session, or ask @pastly on IRC to get access to the ZNC bouncer
5. provide a merge request on about/people to add your bio and picture, see the documentation on the people page, add yourself to introduction in the wiki

So you also have a lot of reading to do already! The new-person page is a good reference to get started.

But take it slowly! It can be overwhelming to join a new organisation and it will take you some time to get acquainted with everything. Don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions!

See you soon, and welcome aboard!
