- Event promotion.
Promoting events as they come up. Includes WordCamps, Contribution Days and causal get togethers for reviewing. - Country event reporting.
This is being done through their usual channels per country. - Contribution pack.
This will have a guide to getting started, doing_it_wrong theme and an offline handbook.
We need focus on doing_it_wrong theme. - Getting mentors in areas.
We saw this pat week how important this was through Nepal and London. We even got a new mentor due to London event.
We need to encourage people to gain experience reviewing and then they can move onto being mentors. Ideally we suggest 6+ months. - We would like to see translations offered on the handbook. This avoids having to duplicate this outside or on another source. It also keeps the team from getting fragmented.
@feedmymedia is going to look into this. - Survey.
This is on hold while we focus on translations. @shinichin will consider this maybe. It was only an idea. - Communication and tools wise we will look to Polygots and how this happens as a community.
- Japan is planning a contribution day and this would be a good testing ground for the contribution pack and doing_it_wrong theme.
