Group Checkins

@daisyo is looking for some volunteers to compile some questions that we might be able to ask organizers of previous contributor events (especially completely online events like WordCampWordCamp WordCamps are casual, locally-organized conferences covering everything related to WordPress. They're one of the places where the WordPress community comes together to teach one another what they’ve learned throughout the year and share the joy. Learn more. India.) The goal would be to help us in discussing what worked and didn’t work for these past events.

  • Input from @annezazu : Might be good to ask questions like “What resources would be helpful from your POV to engage people after a WordCamp?”, Something around desired resources AND something about what pain points/questions people get.

@annezazu my only update is the Codeable doc that I shared with the group. I plan to continue to see what we can learn from trying to create a pathway for Codeable devs to get involved in community efforts as a bit of a large “betaBeta A pre-release of software that is given out to a large group of users to trial under real conditions. Beta versions have gone through alpha testing in-house and are generally fairly close in look, feel and function to the final product; however, design changes often occur as part of the process.” group.

@amethystanswers created a simple Google doc with the links to our meeting recaps: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1AOL6m_dB6TRxF7GCK1Y2wS694FVhQh2dGmi0EeVeGKc/edit?usp=sharing
