    Get involved information
    Setting up Make WordPress Slack and WordPress.org accounts
  3. Follow-ups, note taker recruitment, actions
    a) Notes from previous meetings for review/ queries if needed
    b) Recruitment – Would you like to help source the weekly agenda links and information from other teams? It is a great way to get to know what’s happening in the project and this information is also used for a number of marcomms purposes. We collate information in this rolling google doc.
    c) Notetakers for coming weeks – join our group of contributors taking part in producing notes and updates
    c) GitHub – sessions on how to use this and to help those writing the how to material/ wiki are being planned.
    Next practical session will be GitHub: we have had no date matches in people’s availability. We will run a poll instead for two dates and pick the one most people can do. This session is hoped to be focused on those new to using GitHub. You will need a GitHub account set up and available to use in the online video session. Please do start using our GitHub if you are comfortable with using the software.
