[Alison intends to create a self-serving thread, because that's what this space is for, right? :P  anyway, noting it here so she remembers tomorrow, which IS what THIS space is for!....]  When will contribution mentors be doing things?  I know that's a broad question, but, I'm working on figuring out my overall schedule.

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!!!!
