New Working Group profile field none

Description Christopher Guindon CLA 2017-11-08 11:42:27 EST 
The Locationtech working group would like to see a view of all users interested in locationtech.

We would like to see a new field where users can select all the working groups that they are interested in.

This feature would eventually allow us to create a view of all users interested in a specific WG on accounts.eclipse.org and possibly each working group website.

The existing interest field could be used for this but it does not do a good job at seperating who's interested in IoT/locationtech and who is interested in the IoT/locationtech working group:

New Working Group profile field

Hi Thea,

Do you think something like this would work on accounts.eclipse.org?

This is now live!

You can select which working group you are interested in! In the future, I could see us using this data to customize the content of the user profile content so that it's tailored to each user based off their WG interests.

WOW this is great!
