:two: :zero: DrupalCon Portland - it's never too soon to think ahead to the next event
:two: :one: DrupalCon Portland: who plans to attend?
:two: :one: Any takers to lead the new first-time contribution workshop in Portland? It is fully scripted and will have been vetted a few times before DrupalCon.
:three: :zero: The all-new, fresh, clean, accessible, and fully scripted First-time contrib workshop.
We ran it once in Lille, but AmyJune led it (and wrote it), so there could have been a better gauge for testing. We got some initial feedback and incorporated it.
The goal of this slide deck is that anyone can copy it and make adjustments to cater to their own local or regional event. It is flexible enough to run as an hour workshop or a 2-hour training.
:three: :one: Is anyone interested in leading this at their event? New Jersey, Mountain Camp, and Drupal South representatives expressed interest during an event working group meeting. Link to Slack thread: https://drupal.slack.com/archives/C03KZ3BETNH/p1699980424742709
:three: :two: Florida DrupalCamp is looking for someone to help run the beta (the iteration). FLDC can secure a free ticket to the event for any mentor who would like to help. Anyone interested?
:four: Contribution /tools page documentation - https://drupal.org/tools -

- Open questions for mentors:
1. Should we remove the quicksprint option because it is archived and I don't think we use or recommend it anymore over DrupalPod?
2. Are contributors using the simplytest.me option at large contribution events OR on their own? BriamDriesen mentioned relevancy in 2023.
3. What formatting would help better classify the local, remote, manual testing to help guide a new contributor to the option most correct for them?
:five: Open floor/other topics. Please start a new thread.
That's it for now! Continue the conversation in the threads above or below and in issues. Remember to post in the meeting issue or in the roll call thread! And volunteer!!!!
