As part of registering for the 2021 LLVM dev meeting, participants were asked to answer a few questions about how the LLVM community could increase engagement and contributions. Out of the 450 people replying, the top 3 issues mentioned were "sometimes people aren't receiving detailed enough feedback on their proposals"; "people are worried to come across as an idiot when asking a question on the mailing list/on record"; "People cannot find where to start; where to find documentation; etc." These were discussed in the community.o workshop at the 2021 LLVM dev meeting, and a summary of that discussion was presented by Adelina Chalmers as a keynote session, see 2021 LLVM Dev Mtg "Deconstructing the Myth: Only real coders contribute to LLVM!? - Takeaways” One of the solutions suggested to help address those top identified barriers from the majority of participants is introducing the concept of "office hours". We have taken some small steps since then to make "office hours" a reality. In this lightning talk, I will talk about what issues"office hours" is aiming to address; how both newbies and experienced contributors can get a lot of value out of them; and where we are in implementing this concept and how you can help for them to be as effective as possible.
