Figure out Work plan



2021-2021 TechDocs Workplan: 2020-2021 Technical Documentation Sub-team Work Plan

2020-2021 TechDocs retrospective: 2020-2021 Tech Docs Retrospective

  • Outreach:

    • Past efforts to solicit contributions from the community:

      • Post on listserv

      • Presentation at online forum

    • Use survey to get more ideas (Alicia)

  • Jekyll site:

    • Blake will follow up with Mark; clarify the site (tech-docs ?)

  • API Working Group:

    • Scope of WG changing

    • Need clarity on role of TechDocs role (e.g., create Jira tickets for problematic endpoints?, identify gaps in techdocs re: API and endpoints)

    • Developers interested in more actively managing this documentation (but do not want to create python endpoint examples, as a general rule)
