Help needed —> Core team and WCEU Contributor Day

You may have seen update posts on WCEU’s plans on how to create an online Contributor DayContributor Day Contributor Days are standalone days, frequently held before or after WordCamps but they can also happen at any time. They are events where people get together to work on various areas of https://make.wordpress.org/ There are many teams that people can participate in, each with a different focus. https://2017.us.wordcamp.org/contributor-day/ https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/getting-started/getting-started-at-a-contributor-day/. this year (see posts from April 15th and April 24th). You may have also caught a reference to this in this past week’s devchat (see related summary post).

As part of the coming online/virtual WCEU, we’ve been asked to plan for how CoreCore Core is the set of software required to run WordPress. The Core Development Team builds WordPress. will handle an online Contributor Day.  The specific items we’ve been asked to consider:

  • Ensure our Getting Started at a Contributor Day handbook page has been updated as necessary
  • Ensure new contributor meeting happens between 25 May and 3 June, alerting the WCEU Contributor Day team via comment
  • Record a video intro about the Core team, similar to the live intros usually given in-person
  • Confirming list of good-first-issues and experience-issues for Contributor Day
  • Identifying 2+ experienced contributors to help facilities during Contributor Day
  • Plan for a live intro session at the beginning of Contributor Day

So I’m looking to you all to help here: who can help cover any of these tasks and help during the actual WCEU Contributor Day event? Please comment on this post noting which of the bulleted needs above are items you can assist with, thanks!
