Node.js build WG onboarding

This document is an outline of the things we tell new Build WG members at their onboarding session.

Onboarding checklists

Onboarding to build-test issue checklist

• Email the new member and obtain their public GPG key
• Add them to the test group in nodejs-private/secrets
• Add them to the nodejs/build and nodejs-private/build GitHub teams
• Before the meeting the Onboardee is to:
  • Install Ruby and the dotgpg gem
  • Install Python and Ansible
  • Read resources.md, jenkins-guide.md, GOVERNANCE.md and have any questions ready
• Schedule a meeting with the member to:
  • Walk them through the infrastructure and what other members do
  • Explain how to decrypt nodejs/secrets
  • Practice SSH access to the organization's machines. See ssh.md.
  • Practice running the jenkins/worker/create.yml playbook on one of the machines in the test CI cluster
  • Answer any questions they may have
• PR changes to README.md to add the member to build-test

At first all members are added to nodejs/build-test. Members may be granted further permissions and access as needed by the working group, see GOVERNANCE.
