**Retrospective**

What went well?

 * Solid amount of content
 * First online workshop in Japanese
 * Improved onboarding and process documentation
 * Moved APAC meeting
 * Learn survey is live

What we can improve?

 * Update outdated handbook pages
 * Clear guidelines for newcomers
 * How we use 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 by
   the repository owner. [https://github.com/](https://github.com/)

What will we do differently?

 * Call for audit and content update for WP 6.1
 * Sprint sweep at end of month and assigning certain issues to the sprint
