Previous Month’s Action Items

Rachel

 

@Austin Munsell @Jenna Silver @Elizabeth M. Caringola @Rachel Searcy Consider talking with your local developers/system maintainers to get their opinions on the documentation, identify gaps, identify potential contributors
Liz will ask her dev group after they complete the 3.3.1 upgrade this month. UPDATE: Might have info to share after meeting with them on Friday. - Liz talked to her head dev and the only thing he mentioned was fleshing out documentation for the API; didn’t hear back from most of them.
@Rachel Searcy Contact User Docs to gauge interest in proposing a session for the virtual forum

Plan for April TAC presentation

All

  • TechDocs is scheduled to present at the April TAC meeting (Tuesday, April 11)

  • Prompts:

    • Something relevant to your subteam’s workplan, like workshopping an idea, getting feedback on a decision

    • Suggestions for TAC documentation/training

    • Simply to tell us what your subteam does! Walk us through a recent agenda, talk about a recent decision, peel back the curtain on your subteam!

  • What should we talk about?

    • talk about challenges, what it means to be "rebuilding," creating documentation/resources so that you don't need to be a dev to use tech docs or to be an active/contributing member of the Tech Docs team, create more continuity within Tech Docs with our internal documentation

    • show a pull request in the repository to anchor the conversation and pull back the curtain - we could create a fake example if needed

    • Thanks @Blake Carver for fixing a 404 error we found during the meeting!

Next meeting

 

 

April 5, 1pm EST – or cancel since the Virtual Forum is April 4-5?
