Online meeting (eg. IRC meeting)

We've begun holding weekly office hours in IRC. The main goal of office hours is to help mentor and empower new contributors to become regular core contributors.

Should I attend?

If any of the following apply to you, then you should absolutely attend:

  • You're looking to get involved, but don't know where to start.
  • You need help understanding the process of core development.
  • You need help creating patches.
  • You need help setting up a development environment for Drupal 8.
  • You have questions about the initiative goals or any outstanding issues.
  • You want to meet/co-work with others working on HTML5 issues.
  • You have a patch that you need reviewed.

Don't get caught too up in the details of the process, or be afraid to jump in. We all have to start somewhere, and not too long ago, I was in the same place as many of you lurkers. I'm happy to help with any of these things, and want to see you succeed!

When and Where

The office hours for the HTML5 Initiative will run from 1-3 PM EST, this Sunday afternoon in #drupal-html5 in IRC. I'll be around for at least that long, and will be reviewing/writing patches and helping anyone that's interested in getting involved with the HTML5 Initiative with whatever they need to do so.

I hope to see you there!

Hi everyone,

Just chiming in to remind everyone that we'll be doing it again this Sunday, and (almost) every Sunday going forward.

Instead of cluttering up this group with a new post every week, I'll continue to update this one. Be sure to use the "Sign up" button if you'd like an e-mail reminder the day before the event.

Hope to see you there.

Signups are closed?

Thanks so much for doing this, Jacine! I won't be able to participate this Sunday but look forward to joining a future session.

There seems to be a glitch with this event page, though: it says 'signups closed for this event.'

Whoops, sorry about that!

Thanks so much for the heads up Fureigh! Event signup should be fixed now.

I'm looking forward to see you in future sessions! :)

No problem!
