Primer Drupal ladder de la comunidad catalana

Buenas,

Creo que sería momento de ir pensando en inaugurar este tipo de reuniones, para aquellos que no estuvieran en la última reunion del grupo dejo un enlace para ilustrar como funciona el sistema:

http://learndrupal.org/ladder/ee503327-50be-1904-8d04-9499098cad64

La dinámica de estas reuniones es la siguiente:

  • Nos reunimos en un lugar a convenir (seguir leyendo) con mesas de trabajo
  • Hacemos un stand up delante del ladder (escalera) y nos dividimos en grupos del mismo nivel
  • Cada grupo elige su área de trabajo y se pone a ello

Shall we have OxDUG Drupal Ladder sprint(s)?

Edit: if you're interested, there is a plan for the day which anyone can edit if they think it could be improved. Also, you should sign up for the dates you're interested in asap!

If you were at the last OxDUG, you might have heard heather talk about the Drupal Ladder project. Do enough people in OxDUG want to do this some time in the next month or two?

Primarily the Drupal Ladder is an attempt to get more people contributing to Drupal core; but for the individual Drupaler it also provides structured training to become a more skilful Drupal developer. So everybody wins.

Drupal Ladder

Hi!

I'm at a local Drupal ladder meetup and I was looking through the core initiatives listed on the lesson for Find a core system that interests you and learn about it and I was surprised to notice that Date in Eight is not on the list!

What's the dealio?

Is this something you want in a place like this to try and get more people to help, to see if more people are interested? Seems that this initiative could use more publicity and the Drupal ladder could be a perfect place to do so, no?

Drupal4Gov Ladder and Quarterly US event

I've added two new events.

The 1st is on the 14th and is open to the worldwide drupal4Gov community. We have 15 call in lines and seating for 15 at the event.

And what ever will we be doing? Framing a Drupal4Gov ladder. Yep, Drupal4Gov ladder. Bryan Hirsch will be leading us in this effort. Please email me at kirsten.burgard2@va.gov to attend (phone or in person).

We are looking at all forms of government, so, state, provincial, international, school board, local, federal, etc... So, a nice assortment of folks will really make this a valuable lesson.

Southern Colorado (SCUG) Drupal Ladder meetups

I'd like to start regular monthly meetups for anyone interested in contributing to the Drupal project. These meetups would be based on the content from http://drupalladder.org and separate from the current presentation style meetups at the beginning of each month. I'd like to schedule an introductory learn sprint (http://drupalladder.org/#learn-sprint) later this month. Location will likely be the Old Colorado City library (http://ppld.org/old-colorado-city-library).

I'm considering the following dates/times:
Tuesday, Aug 21st, 6:30pm - 8:00pm
or
Wednesday, Aug 22nd, 6:30pm - 8:00pm

Drupal Ladder next steps

Our learn sprint (a funny word for something that seems rather sluggish and halting) got some of us up to rung 5 anyway.

The rungs above 5 are really much more free-form, and it appears that this is the point where you actually contribute instead of learning about contributing. Thus I think we could actually do an issue sprint.

An issue sprint is supposed to take two hours. Read about it at http://learndrupal.org/node/1#issue-sprint.

And of course, we need both some issues and some people to lead sprints.

What about non-coders

I know the ultimate goal of Learn Drupal is to get to 1% contributing to core. My question is in regards to Learn and Issue Sprints. What about people who want to contribute, but do not write code?

I always hear, "anyone can contribute, even documentation". Where do we send people who want to contribute without writing code? We don't want to alienate them, right?

  • Do we have them verify/recreate bugs?
  • Get them to test lessons on LearnDrupa.org and see if, as newbie's or non-coders, they can follow the directions?

This is where I'm concerned we'll lose people.
