Tools, Labs, & MediaWiki-Vagrant help desk (#wikimedia-hackathon-2016)
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Operate a help desk for people with questions about getting started with MediaWiki-Vagrant, Cloud-Services, and/or Toolforge. Problems with account creation, software installation, instance creation, and related issues welcome. Think of this table as a face-to-face version of asking for help on the #wikimedia-labs IRC channel.

Drop-in participation by any hackathon attendees with some time and energy to donate to helping others is welcome.

We had quite a few drop ins and help from @Petrb. I know that at lest two of the projects shown in the showcase (T131664: Allow translations at translatewiki.net via mobile chat apps and https://github.com/mooeypoo/MWStew) involved help with Tool Labs setup.
