Hey y’all,

It’s been awhile since we had weekly docs chats, and I think it’s about time to start them up again.

In making the decision to skip the weekly chats and move to monthly chats, then later to skip all chats altogether, I think we managed to completely unwind all of the organization around docs team initiatives and projects. Not good.

We need to reverse the reversal!

Re-starting Weekly Chats – Sept. 3

Per the time and date in the sidebarSidebar A sidebar in WordPress is referred to a widget-ready area used by WordPress themes to display information that is not a part of the main content. It is not always a vertical column on the side. It can be a horizontal rectangle below or above the content area, footer, header, or any where in the theme. here on make/docs, we’ll be restarting weekly chats at Thursday 18:00 UTC 2015 in the #docs channel on Slack.

In a couple of days, I’ll post an agenda for Thursday’s meeting. The gist will be that this week, I’d like to talk about status reports on the Theme Developer handbook, HelpHub, and other projects. Mark your calendars and join us!
