IRC Recap – Nov 1
DST messed us all up.
Teams: Pick One
When we start getting our groups sorted out, pick one. Part of our burnouts happen when we’re spread too thin, so pick one thing and run with it. If you do videos, do videos. You can help out here and there with the others, btu let that be your main focus
Once we all settle back in from traveling, we’ll sort out how we want to collect and direct our teams.
Rotating IRC
Since we can’t hit everyone, I’m thinking maybe we should start moving the times around so some days work better for others, etc etc. If everyone who wants to be in IRC can post their best times, I’ll come up with some rotating schedule for IRC chats, so everyone can get in.
Roadmap for Documentation
Andrea and Siobhan are going to sort out what needs to be Handbooked and what needs to remain codex’d. There’s a Wiki tag of <code>{{Handbook}}</code> that will start being slapped on pages we think should be brought into Handbooks. Many pages, like the functions etc, will stay as they are, as will info on permalinks. We need to discuss (on wp-docs) this roadmap at a high level, before we can get into the nitty gritty.Look for that
By the way, people have asked about Videos. The short version is “Are you interested?” I will be taking names and coordinating with Andrea M. to sort out how to get you other to WP TV
Just have to work with Andrea M, so she’s not overwhelmed! There will be a Video Post for you to toss your name in that hat.
User Guide
This has been copy-edited (yay! Thank you Christine) so the next round is ‘Pull in images from .com’ Whenever possible, just download the image from .com and upload. When not? Yes, we need a new screenshot. There are also some pages where we’re not 3.5′d yet, so feel free to tweak as you go. The Guide may not get a home until post 3.5, depending on how much time the .org server people have.

I only copy edited three section 6 – 8. I started from the bottom. There are still 5 sections needed to be done. I’ll try to do more this weekend.

Glad you started from the bottom. Starting at 1, I got through ‘Pages’ in 5.

To clarify, I was more focused on proofreading, and not copy-editing.

Either way, more eyes == better

I’m happy to help out with developery handbook stuff. We’d love to have it for WordPress.com VIP clients, etc. I’ll try to make the IRC chat next Thursday.

That’d be great Daniel – would love to have you helping out!

On the IRC chats – ideally I’d like to do it any time between 8am and 8pm GMT.

I have several mindmaps that might be useful for a handbook.Feel free to use anything that is relevant.I wil be doing more as I get the time and understand the codex a bit more.
