      We still need volunteers to sit in the…

      We still need volunteers to sit in the #wordpress-contribute IRC channel and just make sure anyone with questions is directed to the right area. The biggest need is between UTC 0:00-12:00, and we have 4 hour shifts.

      This is probably one of the easiest ways to actually start contributing if you’d like to start helping out anywhere. Familiarity of the contribution process is needed, but programming knowledge is not.

      See the schedule here https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Ap7kF4dij-8ddDY2d1laWFRQR1BfWDRhbmtDMmhrOEE#gid=2

          Caveat: easy if you are already familiar with the contributor community. Not easy or appropriate for someone just starting out due to the knowledge required to direct people to the right places.

            Yes, that. 😀 I was thinking easy as in non-code.
