====Canned Response==== | |||
Thanks for offering to help us build Mozilla's websites! | |||
Start by joining us in #webdev on IRC. http://mzl.la/irc_getting_started will help you get connected, and http://mzl.la/webdev_irc lists some WebDev channels. | |||
Next register an account on bugzilla. Bugzilla can be daunting, so check out http://mzl.la/bugzilla_for_humans (15m video HIGHLY recommended). | |||
Now look for a WebDev mentored bug in https://wiki.mozilla.org/Webdev/GetInvolved and contact the mentor - over IRC, email, or comment on the bug. | |||
Finally, with your mentor, fork the github repository for the bug's website and you're ready to start coding! | |||

Suggestion: Use the [http://www.mozillians.org mozillians.org contributor directory] to help. Communicate through your team's channels and encourage people to sign up and group themselves with a common team tag. If you assign a group tag to all contributors on your project, the [https://metrics.mozilla.com/pentaho/content/pentaho-cdf-dd/Render?solution=metrics2&path=mozillians&file=mozillians.wcdf Mozillians dashboard] will track the size of that group and will also allow you to easily export the contact information for group members. You can export these contacts to ensure all your contributors are signed up. | Suggestion: Use the [http://www.mozillians.org mozillians.org contributor directory] to help.

=Define Contribution Opportunities= | A (SUMO): | ||
SUMO - Staff: Ricky Rosario, Will Kahn-Greene, Tim Watts (part of his time), Tanay Gavankar (contractor/intern). Volunteer: Berker Peksag (irregular). We've had a couple other one- or two-commit contributors. Those are just code, are you also interested in QA? | |||
MDN - Staff: Luke Crouch, James Bennett, Les Orchard, Paul MacLanahan (part time), Craig Cook (part time). Volunteer: Buddy Lindsey, Manuel Strehl, Tanner Filip, Connor Montgomery. | |||
Community Tools - Staff: Dave Dash, Tim Watts (the rest of his time), a number of people from Flux, but I assume Fred will cover them. Volunteer: Nigel Babu. | |||

* Mentored bug list - http://mzl.la/webdev_mentored_bugs | |||
* MDN - front-end coding with HTML & CSS! | |||
Suggestion: Look at what your team's needs are and what gaps you have in staffing to come up with a list of contribution opportunities. Capture those on a wiki page, in bugs, as role descriptions in Jobvite or whatever makes sense for your community. | Suggestion: Look at what your team's needs are and what gaps you have in staffing to come up with a list of contribution opportunities.

=Map Contribution Paths= | A (SUMO): | ||
We have lists of bugs, some marked Good First Bug. We're starting to use mentored bugs more. | |||

A (SUMO): | |||
We have done a lot of work to document installation and in some cases (MDN) to automate it via tools like Vagrant. There isn't much documentation on how to contribute code in a broader sense. | |||
Suggestion: In addition to just documenting these steps, look for a simple 5-minute task that someone can take to get started (for example, signing up for Bugzilla if they are interested in coding) and also figure out where in the process you can add a mentor to help people. | Suggestion: In addition to just documenting these steps, look for a simple 5-minute task that someone can take to get started (for example, signing up for Bugzilla if they are interested in coding) and also figure out where in the process you can add a mentor to help people. | ||

Q: Can you measure participation or contributors today? If so, what metrics can you track? What goal or metric would you like to achieve for Q1?

Suggestion: Write down what you think would be helpful to track even if it isn't possible to get that data today. We'll work on implementing dashboards when we know what data we want. | Suggestion: Write down what you think would be helpful to track even if it isn't possible to get that data today.

=Relevant Bugs= | A (SUMO): | ||
No, we don't have established goals right now, and I don't think we could realistically at the moment. Beyond "number of commits by non-paid authors" I don't think we have a metric in place. | |||
