Welcome Jaskirat and Xiaoya to GSoD!
We are thrilled to have Jaskirat Singh and Xiaoya Xia officially joining CHAOSS under this year’s Google Season of Docs! Jaskirat will be working on the CHAOSS Community Handbook, and Xiaoya will be working with the D&I Badging Program, building out the documentation for applicants, reviewers, and moderators. GSoD runs until December 6 and we can’t wait to see the improvements and changes that they implement over the next few months!

CHAOSScast Episode 14: The Theory and Future of Measurement with Chris Mercer
This week we delve deeper into analyzation of metrics, the conclusions we can make from them, and how that impacts the changes that are made. Mercer gives us a different perspective from the world of digital marketing and shows us the power of being able to answer relevant questions and identify trends and patterns. It’s a great listen, which you can do so here: https://podcast.chaoss.community/14.
