@webtechpooja – I was out for a festival in the past weeks. We celebrated a week-long festival – “Diwali” here in India last week.

@arasae:

  1. New text-based course shipped: https://learn.wordpress.org/course/getting-started-with-wordpress-get-familiar/ <–It needs a lot of feedback and iterations, however, so I would love additional stuff there!
  2. I’m halfway through the workshop mentioned on posts vs. pages — I need to wrap that up.
  3. Life is in the way.
  4. Finish the posts vs. pages workshop, but that may be more of a two week goal.

  2. Took the days off, consequently having back to back meetings for the past 2 days
  3. No
  4. work on docs for faculty, work on creating training team course (aligned w/ our contrib ladder)

@rkohilakis:

  1. Started working on a user-focused FSE course
  2. :point_up:
  3. Trying to figure out what is a good starting point for a user-based FSE course… should it be broken up into a super beginner and then someone with some experience?  Should it be broken into basics and then more personalized?
  4. Hopefully have all the content gathered so I can start defining objectives and shaping it into a course.

Open Discussions

@femy asked @courane01 do you have any setup resources to get started on the Learn GitHubGitHub GitHub is a website that offers online implementation of git repositories that can easily be shared, copied and modified by other developers. Public repositories are free to host, private repositories require a paid subscription. GitHub introduced the concept of the ‘pull request’ where code changes done in branches by contributors can be reviewed and discussed before being merged be the repository owner. https://github.com/ tasks. Also, wondering if Auditing is still open for help?

@azhiyadev replied on this, @hlashbrooke will be the best contact for Learn GitHub
