Docs Meetup Roundup – Oct 10, 2013


1. DevHub

@rarst and @toscho are both now working on developer.wordpress.org.

2. Handbooks

WordCamp EU worked on Plugin Developer Handbook.

Virtual Docs Meetup worked primarily on Theme Developer Handbook.

3. Virtual Docs Sprint

The first virtual Docs Sprint went well and we had 5 or 6 contributors from three different countries. 🙂

Got feedback from one contributor that virtual meetups can be boring unless you’re already working on something; so we’ll likely even meet in-person (in the Seattle area) on virtual docs meetup days. Would love to see other contributors organize their own local in-person Docs Sprints.

We have another Docs Sprint this Sunday, October 20th so join us on IRC or in-person, if you’re in the Seattle area.

4. Theme School Curriculum

@courtneydawn and @sewmyheadon met on IRC during the Meetup and looked at both the Theme Dev Handbook and Theme School Curriculum and see significant overlap, so we’re going to review both efforts and see how we can leverage good content in both places without duplicating work.

5. Inline Docs

@kimparsell reports that they’re still plugging away and got new contributors from both WCTO and WCEU (yea!).  Thanks contributors!

Current status: 67 of 184 files complete (~36%).

Have a great week!
