Infrastructure

This event is highly dependent
on a speedy uplink to the Intertubes!
We are linked up with two times
50 MBit/s Down & 5 MBit/s Up.
Pleeeeze use that bandwidth wisely.


Infrastructure

Use copper over wireless.

Disable any personal hotspots/MiFis.


Infrastructure

Make use of the good cell coverage.
Turn off any sync services.
Turn off E-Mail.

Avoid any unnecessary traffic.

WebPlatform.org
Doc Sprint: Work Plan

Hello, and welcome!

The two focus groups we have today are:

• The API reference group
• The CSS property reference group
• (float from one to the other if wished)


APIs

There are a lot of APIs we want to cover on
WebPlatform.org, with docs at different
stages. To get started:

• Read the API project plan: wpd.mx/APIpr
• Read our Guide to creating API pages
wpd.mx/APIgd
• Choose what you want to work on
• Let us know, and get going!

APIs

Your main contact for the API focus group:
Scott Rowe.


CSS properties

There are a load of CSS properties to cover,
and we need your help! To get started:

• Read the CSS project plan: wpd.mx/CSSpr
• Read our Guide to CSS property pages
wpd.mx/CSSgd
• Choose what you want to work on
(concentrate on highest priorities first)
• Let us know, and get going!

CSS properties

Your main contact for the CSS focus group:
Chris Mills.


Or... “do what you want!”

Don’t want to do CSS docs? How about

• Fixing bugs
• Working on templates/extensions
• Writing some different docs
• Working on skinning
• You could also do just demos, or writing, or
proofing...

Working practice

Work how you want, as long as you are
happy and productive!

Collaborate. Help each other!

Let us know what you’re working on, and
when you start new things.


Getting help

We are keeping it low-fi during the sprint!

• Grab a steward
• Raise your hand
• Talk to others next to you
• Don’t be afraid — we won’t bite (much)



Thanks!
Questions?

This is for the newcomers!

Those of you who are already experienced
with using WebPlatform.org
can now get started.



WebPlatform.org
Beginners: Getting Started

Signing up

You’ll need a free WebPlatform.org account:

• Go to docs.webplatform.org
• Hover over Log in
• Click the Create account link
• Fill in and submit the form


Submitting bugs

We track site bugs at W3’s Bugzilla:

• Go to w3.org/bugs
• Click Open a new Bugzilla account
• Follow the instructions


Getting started

• Log in
• Note the root of the Wiki is at
http://docs.webplatform.org/wiki/
• Review the site structure at
Meta:Editors_Guide/Topic_Hierarchy
wpd.mx/SiteStr
• Read the editor’s guide at
WPD:Editors_Guide -> wpd.mx/EdGd


Things to bear in mind

• You need to be logged in before
you can edit things
• When making major edits or adding a
new page, work offline on a text editor
• If you want to move or delete
pages, talk to us first
• It’s Media Wiki based!


Media Wiki crash course

• (Almost) no tags needed
• * and # for bullets and numbers
• =x=, ==x==, etc. for heading levels
• ’’x’’ and ’’’x’’’ for bold/italic



• [URL link-text] for external links
• [[relative-URL|link-text]] for internal
• [file:filename.xxx] for embedding files
• Tables are horrible



• <syntaxHighlight></syntaxHighlight>
for code blocks
• <code></code> for inline code
• Use <div> and <span> to hang style=”” off,
for bespoke styling
• Use proper list markup
for complicated lists



Go grab a DRINK!
It‘s about time to review & wrap up for
today and we‘ll start with that soon.
(And there will be prizes.)
