New Chapter Request - [Singapore, SG]

[Yumingg]

Introduce Yourself
Hi team, I wish to initiate a ProtoSchool chapter in Singapore. I am Yuming, a PhD student focusing on research in Blockchain systems and economic models. I have been studying Filecoin and IPFS research for two years. To reduce the cost of Asian developers, I coauthored the IPFS Book with @tianyidong and @daijiale.

When I joined the IPFS CAMP in Barcelona, I have been very excited that ProtoSchool volunteers assist developers globally on the education of Filecoin and IPFS. Hope I can help with local developers on this new technology.

Co-Organizers
Up to now, I have no local coorganizers. But look for valuable suggestions from Hong Kong Chapter @kk3wong and Beijing Chapter @tianyidong.

What geographic area will your ProtoSchool chapter serve?
Singapore, Asia

What should we call your repo?
Singapore

Have you read and do you agree to abide by the ProtoSchool Code of Conduct?
Yes, I agree.
How should Code of Conduct violations within your chapter be reported?

Thanks for offering to lead a Singapore chapter, @Yumingg!

Could you please confirm how you'd like your name listed when I set up a repo for you?

Hi, Teri
Please use "Yuming".
Thanks!

@Yumingg Thanks again for volunteering to organize a local chapter!

I've set up a basic singapore repo for you and given you admin privileges. (If you haven't already seen the invite, please visit https://github.com/ProtoSchool/singapore/invitations.) I've also added you to our chapter-organizers team and the singapore team you can use to communicate with your members.

Please see the issue queue in your chapter repo for a few final steps that need to be taken in order to get your repo finalized and your chapter listed on our website. Once those steps are complete, we'll close out this setup issue.

I have accepted the invitation.
Thank you,
Teri ~

Hi there! Just reaching out to ensure you've seen the announcement on our new event-based community model for ProtoSchool, which replaces our chapter-based model. With the implementation of this new system, you'll no longer need the repo I set up for you, so I'll delete it shortly (I see that you haven't added any content).

Under the new event-based model, hosting ProtoSchool workshops is easier than ever. Please check out our readme for all the details you need to get started. (Safety comes first, of course, so please refer to guidance from your local health authorities around COVID-19 before scheduling any gatherings.)

I'd also like to invite you subscribe to our newsletter so we can keep you informed of news and resources for local organizers. (Be sure to check the Local Leadership Updates box.)

Looking forward to working with you as you host local events in your community. Thanks again for volunteering!
