Docs' Writing Hours

[Eduard Lucena]

Hello Docs' Team!

As part of the last meeting (last I attended) I took the task of create a
when is good to everyone choosing an hour in their week to work writing
docs. The idea behind this is to have a dedicated time to work with the
docs' and move the work forward consistently.

The link to vote for the hour you can take is this:

http://whenisgood.net/Docs-Writing-Hours

The deadline for voting on this will be one week (Until Next Monday).

Please vote for your preferred time.

Is my thinking correct here?

I see this meeting mostly as a dedicated "hack hour" for people to set
time aside to sit and write docs for an hour. Thus, I chose many times
that I would not be able to do if my full, active attention was required
for the whole hour.

I wanted to make sure I was on the right page with this, because my
response was completely based on this. :-)

Yes, you're totally right. The idea is to have an hour to sit and just
write docs. I have the same struggle to have my focus only on writing, and
having this will help me to improve my collaboration/contribution to the
team. And we can leave the regular docs meeting to talk about the issues in
tooling and other stuff.

Br,

I've added it to fedocal as UTC, pending feedback on my other email.

+1 to put it in EDT

Top Posting:

I am +1 the new time, with one request.  Since three of the current voters are all on non-european time, can we move the timezone to US East coast so it floats nicely?

regards,

bex
