Hey all, I have updated the task description with a few news on accepted sessions & the dedicated space at Wikimania :-)

Hi @Mike_Peel, sounds great! I added your name to the collection of ideas in the task description :-)

Hey @deryckchan, yay! This is the kind of project we had in mind when coming up with the idea for this focus area :-)
We're also thinking about setting up a "problem looking for existing solution" board to help matching people, problems & ideas/existing solutions beforehand/during the hackathon/wikimania. We could set it up onwiki & link to it when promoting the focus area, and create a physical version for the hackathon/wikimania in addition. What do you think? Any other ideas?

More thoughts on how to bridge over to Wikimania: One idea could be: We use the Hackathon days mostly for train the trainers, creation of tutorials, translation corner & 1:1 support for the people who already show up at the Hackathon - and the Wikimania for workshops, discussion panel, support desk etc. This would mean we either need to submit workshops (bot workshop, gadget workshop, template workshop) to the Wikimania program, or the space at Wikimania has to be big enough to run workshops.

Hey @Rfarrand that would be awesome, thank you very much!

@Rfarrand done!

Hi @Rfarrand thanks for the heads up! We will talk this week and provide more infos by end of this week.

Approved.

@Bmueller is this something volunteer dev support people at WMDE are interested in? (Tried to find the right project for that but got lost. Is it WMDE-Tech-Communication?)

Hey @Nemo_bis, of course not, this is a mentored project. An internship is a contract between a company and an individual, with a certain amount of working time (most likely full time), salary and all other agreements that come with a contract. The main reasoning behind this project here is what I wrote in the email on wikitech-l: "Finding good tasks to work on, getting people to review your patches, or just getting good advice can be very challenging. With Season of RevisionSlider we want to provide the chance to experience all of this the easy way - together with us." - it's totally up to the people who are interested in joining this, how much they want to do - it depends on the time, fun, skills people have, and it depends on what people want to commit to as a group. I think the difference to other mentored projects is, that working as a team is a big part of it. For us this is crucial in software development: 4-eyes-principle, helping each other, sharing skills and knowledge, committing together to a project/task, and having fun by doing it. So this project is based on the assumption that working with a group, having people you can ask anything, working on tasks that will get reviewed & merged etc. might be a good way to onboard in the Wikimedia Tech world, or could be cool for people who are around for some time already, but usually work more on their own. I hope that makes it clearer (and I really would love to have a mentored-project-tag ;) I will be travelling soon, so I cannot answer directly, in case you have more remarks/questions :-)

@thiemowmde, this is the originial bug report: "When I click EditFileInfo or Info button, I get an error 200."

goat-for-it

Hey all, I've scheduled the session for Sunday 2 pm, hope that works for everyone?
