Welcome and introductions

Welcome Eden, and welcome to all the returning members!

 


Priorities for the term

  • Create and update documentation in response to new version releases or user feedback

  • Continue systematic review of Help Center pages, updating pages as needed

  • Develop an onboarding workflow and create documentation on what to share with new members

  • Restructure page watching assignments to be compatible with membership fluctuations

  • We can use these as the basis of our work plan for the term.
