With thanks to ICTEV we have space to hold a code sprint on the day following Drupal Downunder.

The code sprint, a free event, is an opportunity for you to help in the development of Drupal 8, it is open to drupalers of all levels that are intereted in getting more involved with the drupal project.

We will have experienced developers on hand to help beginners get up to speed and start to tackle 'Novice' issues in the Drupal core issue queue.

For those that have no PHP experience there will be opportunities to help improve Drupal documentation.

I have signed up for the day, and my Drupal Associate Irene Jehnich has also.

We both are interested in being mentored in the particular subject matter being covered.

In between that learning we are each happy to help others with whatever other skills we happen to have going for us.
Looking forward to it.

Was doing social distancing before it was cool.
