Documentation Team ยป

Community

The GNOME Documentation Project is responsible for writing and maintaining documentation for over 30 GNOME projects, and also helps proofread and edit all other GNOME documentation.

We meet monthly to discuss the overall project and to plan our activities. We also meet weekly in an open question and answer format. We invite everybody to attend the question and answer sessions.

Everyone is welcome to contribute to the documentation team. See the contributing page for information on how you can help write, edit, and translate documentation.

Team Meetings

We hold regular team meetings to track our status and plan our work. These meetings are generally held on the last Sunday of each month, although extra meetings are occasionally held. These are intended to be productive meetings for team members. An agenda is published for each meetings, and we try to stay on topic. Everybody is welcome to join, but please respect the meeting coordinator.

Meetings are held on IRC in the #docs channel on irc.gnome.org. See the contact page for more information about joining us on IRC.

Next Team Meeting: 2009-11-08 at 18:00 UTC

Weekly Q&A Sessions

We hold weekly or biweekly community Q&A sessions. These meetings are open to anybody interested in GNOME documentation. Core members of the team will be available to answer your questions and help you learn the ropes. We hold our Q&A sessions on different days and at different times each week to help accomodate contributors in different timezones.

Meetings are held on IRC in the #docs channel on irc.gnome.org. See the contact page for more information about joining us on IRC.

Status Updates

As one of the many teams that help make GNOME a success, we submit quaterly reports on our progress and our future plans. These are aggregated along with the reports from other teams (WHERE?).
