Last updated on

i.2.1. Project coordinators

The project coordinators are:

  • Amber Matz (Amber Himes Matz on Drupal.org and ambermatz on IRC) - Volunteer coordination and project management
  • Jennifer Hodgdon (jhodgdon on Drupal.org and IRC) - Content oversight
  • Joe Shindelar (eojthebrave on Drupal.org and IRC) - Content oversight
  • Antje Lorch (ifrik on Drupal.org and clara on IRC)

i.2.2. Communication channels

Tasks that need to be done, and content or organizational problems with the guide, are tracked in issues (which may be known as "bugs" or "feature requests" in other tracking systems, but Drupal.org calls them "issues"). You can see all the issues for the project on Issues page for the User Guide project. There is some background information on Drupal.org projects and issues on Section 1.1.12, “Detailed instructions: Background on Drupal.org projects, Git, and patches”.

Project announcements are posted to the Documentation group on groups.drupal.org. They are also announced on the @drupaldocs twitter account.

Meetings for the project may be held in the #drupal-docs IRC channel, and you can feel free to "ping" project coordinators in this channel if they are there and you have a quick question. To learn more about IRC, see https://drupal.org/irc

There is also an email list for this project, which is voluntary for project participants to join. You can join the list or view the archives at: https://groups.google.com/d/forum/d8manual Note that if you post to the list, your post will be viewable by the public.

i.2.3. Questions, suggestions, or comments?

Here are some suggestions for contacting the project participants and coordinators, depending on the nature of your question, comment, or suggestion (see Section i.2.2, “Communication channels” and Section i.2.1, “Project coordinators” above for details on the suggested communication routes):
