Check the [meetup site](http://www.meetup.com//SeattleWordPressMeetup/events/calendar/) or dates listed above for location details. **Online:** If you’re bashful, or simply outside of the Seattle area, you can simply logon to the **IRC channel at [#wordpress-sfd](https://make.wordpress.org/docs/tag/wordpress-sfd/)** and participate from anywhere.  A few of these dates are currently virtual-only. ## How You Can Participate ### What We’re Working On We’re working hard to make progress on both the [Theme Developer Handbook](https://make.wordpress.org/docs/theme-developer-handbook/) and [Plugin Developer Handbook](https://make.wordpress.org/docs/plugin-developer-handbook/), but there are other projects that can also use help. If you’d like to help out with writing or editing the Handbooks, please review the following resources first: * **[WordPress Style Guide](https://make.wordpress.org/docs/handbook/references/handbooks-style-and-formatting-guide/)**– easy guide to help you to create very usable, consistent documentation. * **[Handbook Tutorial Template](https://make.wordpress.org/docs/handbook/templates/tutorial-template/)**– a starter template with typical sections in a good tutorial document. * **[Tutorial Example](https://make.wordpress.org/docs/theme-developer-handbook/advanced-theme-topics/child-themes/)**– Where possible (and relevant) please write things as a tutorial, as opposed to just explanation. This [Child Themes page](https://make.wordpress.org/docs/theme-developer-handbook/advanced-theme-topics/child-themes/) is a good example because it opens by explaining child themes and then gives a tutorial about how to create one. This helps users understand and gives them practical steps to follow. ### It’s Not Just Writing **So what if you don’t like writing?** We need plenty of help with other things like: * Copy editing * Screenshots * Code examples You volunteer the time and we’ll find something you can do to help. ### Getting Started Once you show up, or login to IRC, pingPing The act of sending a very small amount of data to an end point. Ping is used in computer science to illicit a response from a target server to test it’s connection. Ping is also a term used by Slack users to @ someone or send them a direct message (DM). Users might say something along the lines of “Ping me when the meeting starts.” _[@sewmyheadon](https://profiles.wordpress.org/sewmyheadon/)_( Eric Amundson), _[@awoods](https://profiles.wordpress.org/awoods/)_ (Andrew Woods), or another member of the Docs Team if you need something to work on, help getting started, need document reviews, or have any questions. We’ll have an updated list of things people can work on and will be providing direction and help getting started. Thanks and we look forward to seeing you at the next Docs Sprint! **—** **P.S.** If these days and times aren’t convenient, consider [organizing your own local Docs Sprint](https://make.wordpress.org/docs/2013/09/18/roll-your-own-docs-improvement-meetup/).

Thanks to everyone who could make it; particular thanks to [WooThemes](http://woothemes.com), [Automattic](http://automattic.com), and [10up](http://10up.com) for sending their employees, and to those of you who are paying your own way. I and the rest of the docs team really appreciate your support. Just some practical information, including the agenda and schedule. ### What you will need * your laptop * a local installLocal Install A local install of WordPress is a way to create a staging environment by installing a LAMP or LEMP stack on your local computer. or other test site * an IRC client (we’ll all be logged in to [#wordpress-sfd](https://make.wordpress.org/docs/tag/wordpress-sfd/)) * please familiarise yourself with the [style and formatting guide](https://make.wordpress.org/docs/handbook/references/handbooks-style-and-formatting-guide/) * your brain ### Food & Social Activities We’re having our docs dinner together on Monday night at a restaurant near the hotel. Tuesday night we can figure out what to do while we’re there. Lunch isn’t provided by the venue but I’m told that there are lots of places around that we can get food. I’ll buy some munchies ahead of time. ### Workshop It’s the first time we’ve gotten together in person so I think doing a workshop will be a good idea. We’ll look at the frustrations around WordPress documentation and review the results of the recent Codex survey and Codex audit. After discussion we should have a list of tasks for improving WordPress documentation and a roadmap for ongoing improvements. We will also define our goals for the following 2.5 days and create teams to work on specific tasks. Note: one of the summit action items was to create a Codex Roadmap – it would be great if we could produce this at the sprint. Here’s the agenda. Note that it’s fairly fluid – I just wanted some sort of structure for the three days. I’ve added a few presentations which I will give on the first day on doc writing. I’ve also contact a few of the other attendees about doing short presentations. If anyone else would like to do one please feel free to – just keep it to 10-15 minutes. ### Agenda **17th June 2013** 9:00 – 12:00 Documentation Workshop 12:00 – 1:00 Lunch 1:00 – 1:15 – presentation from Siobhan about planning docs 1:15 – 2:30 Planning In the teams, work on planning out the documentation that you’re going to create. 2:30 – 3:00 Break 3:20 – 3:30 presentation from Siobhan about writing docs 3:30 – 5:30 Writing! 5:30 – 5:45 Stand-up to review what we’ve done for the day 7pm – Dinner at Nada **18th June** 9:30 – 9:45 Morning standup 9:45 – 1:00 Writing 1:00 – 2:00 Lunch 2:00 – 6:00 6:00 – 6:15pm Evening standup **19th June** 9:30 – 9:45 Morning standup 9:45 – 1:00 Writing 1:00 – 1:30 Lunch 1:30 – 3:30 Writing 3:30 – 16:30 Wrap up and task list for future 17:00 – I’m off to the airport!
