Planning an Initial HFOSS Learning Activity
Please discuss and record your group's approach for an initial learning activity. When you have a good draft description of the learning activity using the sections below, you could create a learning activity page for it by copying the Learning Activity Format with Directions.
Ideas for Getting Started
- Lots of these can be put in the issue tracker (but not all)
- Different levels of activities / skills
- Research ideas / Professional development
- Getting started documentation
- Reference links will be helpful (Linux, Python, etc...)
- VM Fix (Currently doesn't work in VirtualBox)
- Update Website - incorrect information, broken images, etc. (Accessiblility? Section 508)
- HCI Testing (Wiki has a list of user requirements)
- Does this work with Jaws
- Videos with transcription / caption.
- Gnome Love - This is for beginners, but nothing is actually there for Mousetrap.
Organization
- On Foss2Serve - Wiki page w/ MouseTrap curriculum
- Changes - Bug Tracker: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=mousetrap

Planning Stage 3 Activities
Meetings
Some comment: Should we use IRC? Stoney comments that Gnome has their infrastructure and if you want to be a part of that community then you have to be able to use their tools - this promotes the ability to communicate in the community as well.
Check resources section for links to IRC channels and a pointer to the Gnome resources.
