== News ==
Note items here that you want to be sure the community is aware of. We won't rehash what's listed here, but may raise and discuss questions about these items.
* Mozilla's first web dev conference [https://viewsourceconf.org View Source conference] in Portland, Or. Nov 2-4.
** several MDN folks speaking and hosting discussions (and organizing the conference,too)
** local folks can volunteer: https://docs.google.com/a/mozilla.com/forms/d/1j8FtvYQlhHo5U-kUYRob3j8DdvMuBbjQRED36b6sPDE/viewform
** discount for MDN users/volunteers (register with MDN25 code)
** Please to promote the event to networks, friends, coworkers, etc!!!
*MozFest in London November 6 & 7: teoli & fscholz have a session
* Quick links for APIs.
** Default sidebar for API overview pages. Called {{DefaultAPISidebar('API Name')}}
** This work well for all simple API, that have a couple of guides and some reference
** Example of use: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Audio_Channels_API
** The parameter is the API name as it appears in the [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Template:GroupData GroupData JSON DB] 
** This DB has 108 APIs & will speed the creation of overview pages for simple API (like Audio Channels)
** For large APIs, we will still need to build more complex sidebars, like for WebRTC: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/WebRTC_API
** If you see APIs or Guides without sidebars, please add it (or ask for help).
** If you see errors or discover guides that should be added to GroupData, just ask on IRC, e-mail or file a doc bug.
** next step: Creating a meta-documentation page about the structure of an overview page. Once this meta-doc page we can make a big call for help.
