* (''19:00'') '''Jeremie:''' This is the fifty-eighth weekly meeting about the Learning Area :)
* (''19:00'') '''Jeremie:''' Agenda is there: https://wiki.mozilla.org/MDN/Projects/Content/Learning_Area/Weekly_meetings/2015-10-12
* (''19:00'') '''Jeremie:''' Feel free to add anything you want to discuss.

* (''19:01'') '''sheppy:''' Quite a turnout :)
* (''19:01'') '''Sphinx:''' that's *
* (''19:01'') '''bassam:''' o/
* (''19:03'') '''Jeremie:''' Hi chadsansing :) Welcome, to your first meeting.
* (''19:03'') '''chadsansing:''' Thnx muchly :)
* (''19:03'') '''Jeremie:''' Okay, let's get started
* (''19:04'') '''Jeremie:''' There is no action item from the last time
* (''19:04'') '''Jeremie:''' So our first topis is: Creating an HTML cheatsheet
* (''19:04'') '''Jeremie:''' Today I had a conversation on Twitter about having a simple HTML cheatsheet on MDN
* (''19:04'') '''Jeremie:''' https://twitter.com/DavidBruant/status/653505445122965504
* (''19:05'') '''Jeremie:''' It sounds as a very good idea. If any one is interrested to create it, feel free :) It's a nice opportunity to write something very simple and straightforward about HTML.
* (''19:05'') '''Heather:''' o/
* (''19:05'') '''Jeremie:''' dvincent: I think it would worth tweeting about it. I set up a trello card if you want a link to share: https://trello.com/c/qsgSpZ6x
* (''19:05'') '''Jeremie:''' Hi Heather :)
* (''19:05'') '''klez:''' hi heather o/
* (''19:05'') '''Heather:''' hello all
* (''19:06'') '''dvincent:''' Ok!
* (''19:06'') '''Jeremie:''' dvincent: Thanks :)
* (''19:06'') '''Sphinx:''' looks like a cool short mission for a newcomer regarding the /Learn/HTML :)
* (''19:07'') '''chadsansing:''' I'll share it to the clubs thread on Discourse & update the link as it shows up on MDN.
* (''19:07'') '''dvincent:''' I don't know if the twitter community at large knows how to use Trello or the significance of Trello cards. We may just want to make a stub page and call for people to contribute.
* (''19:07'') '''dvincent:''' It gives people a runway
* (''19:07'') '''Jeremie:''' Sphinx: Yes absolutely :)
* (''19:08'') '''chadsansing:''' Might be cool for club members to contribute.
* (''19:08'') '''Jeremie:''' dvincent: Yes, I understand. But I hate stub as they tend to be forgotten with poor content :-/
* (''19:08'') '''Jeremie:''' chadsansing: Absolutly :)
* (''19:08'') '''jsx:''' Jeremie: you meant a new page that shows element usage examples side by side with how they look, right?
* (''19:08'') '''klez:''' Jeremie, dvincent is right, having a bit of a stub makes people more comfortable with first time contribution
* (''19:09'') '''Jeremie:''' jsx, but just the basic stuff (no need to dig into the 140 HTML tags)
* (''19:09'') '''dvincent:''' maybe I could put out a call for people to brainstorm on what topics they might want included in the stub, and then I (or someone, who we should name) would update the stub and tag the person who suggested it
* (''19:10'') '''jsx:''' Ok
* (''19:10'') '''Jeremie:''' klez: Yes, I agree, I just make sure every body is aware of the draw back if no one is monitoring the work
* (''19:10'') '''Jeremie:''' dvincent: Yes, that sounds very cool
* (''19:10'') '''dvincent:''' might be a cool project to see if we could rope people in. I would not mind adding that to my workflow for the next week or so.
* (''19:10'') '''Jeremie:''' dvincent: \o/
* (''19:11'') '''dvincent:''' {you'll probably have to walk me through how to create/update stub pages, since I've only done minor updates}
* (''19:11'') '''chadsansing:''' Please send me a link to the page once it's created; sharing here: https://discourse.webmaker.org/t/html-cheatsheet-to-share/187
* (''19:11'') '''Jeremie:''' dvincent: No problem I do not have time to do it myself but I can mentor anyone who wish to help :)
* (''19:11'') '''Sphinx:''' (there is no such thing as "minor update")
* (''19:11'') '''Jeremie:''' Sphinx: +1
* (''19:12'') '''Jeremie:''' chadsansing: Okay :)
* (''19:12'') '''chadsansing:''' Sweet,
* (''19:12'') '''dvincent:''' ok, well, updating the MDN twitter handle to be the new one not the old one. ;)
* (''19:12'') '''dvincent:''' woo hoo!
* (''19:13'') '''Jeremie:''' Okay, any question or can we move for ward?
* (''19:13'') '''klez:''' I'd do anything for ward, that guy is great :P
* (''19:13'') '''Jeremie:''' :P
===Learning CSS===
* (''19:14'') '''Jeremie:''' I started to implement the plan to revamp the old CSS Getting Started tutorial
* (''19:14'') '''Heather:''' yes very nice Jeremie
* (''19:14'') '''Jeremie:''' You can follow the progress on that trello card: https://trello.com/c/NAuDmn9u
* (''19:15'') '''sheppy:''' Coolio
* (''19:15'') '''Jeremie:''' Thanks Heather for reviewing the first article

* (''19:16'') '''Heather:''' priority

* (''19:16'') '''Sphinx:''' and some French MercrediDoc attendee even started the localization :)
* (''19:16'') '''Jeremie:''' Sphinx: Yes, MercrediDoc in Paris is a Huge success with around 10 people each time :)
* (''19:16'') '''Sphinx:''' (though I suspect that it might be related with this same Jeremie organising this event )
* (''19:17'') '''Heather:''' Jeremie's the man :P
* (''19:17'') '''Jeremie:''' Sphinx: You could do it as well, I'm sure ;)

===: Trello board review===
* (''19:19'') '''Jeremie:''' Anything to share about your various cards?
* (''19:19'') '''Jeremie:''' I did some soft clean up (removing some old stuff or updating cards)
* (''19:20'') '''Heather:''' nothing here just been doing reviews and a little dabbling in glossary
* (''19:20'') '''klez:''' I don't have time to follow my cards at the moment :(
* (''19:20'') '''Sphinx:''' well since klez asked for help reviewing the Python article and since I had some time ...
* (''19:20'') '''Sphinx:''' :)
* (''19:20'') '''Sphinx:''' https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Learn/Python/Lists
* (''19:20'') '''Jeremie:''' Klez, could you take a look at the Glossary related cards to see if they are all still relevant?
* (''19:20'') '''klez:''' yep, Sphinx did work, as usual!
* (''19:21'') '''Jeremie:''' Sphinx: \o/
* (''19:21'') '''Heather:''' +1 Sphinx
* (''19:21'') '''klez:''' Jeremie, I'm on a flacky setup at the moment, I'll check during the week
* (''19:22'') '''Jeremie:''' klez: No problem, there's no hurry :)
* (''19:22'') '''Sphinx:''' thanks Heather for reviewing (almost) immediately
* (''19:22'') '''Sphinx:''' (and I should have removed this "almost")
* (''19:23'') '''Heather:''' yw anytime :)
* (''19:23'') '''Jeremie:''' Ok so I guess we can move forward?
===Twitter review and storytelling===
* (''19:24'') '''Jeremie:''' dvincent: So what'up on planet Twitter? :)
* (''19:24'') '''dvincent:''' I don't have any really compelling updates. We've been mostly focused on View Source Conf
* (''19:24'') '''Heather:''' dvincent awesome work!
* (''19:24'') '''Jeremie:''' Yes, of course, I tend to forgot about it :P
* (''19:24'') '''dvincent:''' Pretty much everything we have is going to View Source right now. :)
* (''19:25'') '''Jeremie:''' I guess it will be the case up to the first week of November
* (''19:25'') '''dvincent:''' But I'll kick up the cheat sheet project this week (probably Wednesday or Thursday once I get myself organized and we get that stub page)
* (''19:25'') '''Jeremie:''' :) Thanks

* (''19:28'') '''Jeremie:''' Okay, any last question or topic before we end that meeting?
