Day 2 (Wednesday)
All day: Hackathon

All day: tutorials in conference rooms

Day 1: General discussion/workshop

 * Discussions will be on the afternoon of Day 1 (Tuesday) on September 10, 2013. 1:30-5:30PM
 * It will be held in various conference rooms on the 3rd floor, plus space will be made in the north end of the 3rd floor using the couches and white dividers
 * Each session will be 1 hour in length.
 * There will be two major workshop tracks (either Product/Design, Engineering, or AllTech) running concurrently with up to 3 smaller discussions.
 * These sessions will not be videotaped, any artifacts/preparations are on your end (inform Rachel if you have any needs for recording, videoconferencing, etc.). For things that need to be videotaped, it's probably best to be left to tutorial day 2.

Topics sorted by number of votes:

Design at the WMF

 * Leads
 * Jared Zimmerman + other presenters


 * Schedule
 * 2:45 pm - 90 minutes - North side of 3rd floor


 * Audience
 * front-end developers
 * some PMs
 * anyone else interested


 * Outcomes
 * Explain how Design will be functional cross-team across the WMF
 * Design-approach across device classes - Vector, etc. on tablets, handsets, & desktop
 * Guidance on Grid system RFC
 * Design direction and consistency esp. Agora. To create awareness that this is going on and to formulate some place to put it up (other than a PDF) so people can participate.
 * Agora, "Jared" update
 * Flow prototype,
 * building CSS with LESS
 * revising the font stack


 * Discussion
 * emgmt combined two discussions Tychay (talk) 23:54, 3 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Will probably start with a design intro transitions to technical aspects, people who actually use Jared Agora??
 * discussion vs. presentation (e.g. LESS) ratio? Can present how it looks like, but no use-case for the Agora piece currently.
 * I am merging the Grid system discussion into this. I know there is a technical aspect, but that discussion can be put in the Front-end/Javascript architecture discussion below. Tychay (talk) 17:23, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

 * Design direction and consistency - Agora, "Jared" update (e.g. Flow prototype), building CSS with LESS, revising the font stack
 * I'd like to see this as a tutorial where design explains what the Jared Agora is.  :-). Think also this topic can be merged with the one above and below. Tychay (talk) 09:29, 24 August 2013 (UTC). Also would like to see a roadmap of how the Design team is integrated in the rest of tech.
 * Pretty much what Terry said. Possibly the remoteness, but Design's current plans are basically a Chomskyan black box to me - there is input and output and the internal workings are sheathed in mystery. Ironholds (talk) 16:26, 24 August 2013 (UTC)

Currently this seems to be feasible only for WMF employees at the UX team - and our backlog keeps growing. Qgil (talk) 20:09, 3 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Implementing a responsive, proportional grid system in MediaWiki -- why and how.
 * We've talked about this before but it's not been implemented, even experimentally, in any products AFAIK. See examples like Pau's experimental grid. Steven Walling (WMF) &bull; talk   23:02, 27 August 2013 (UTC)

 * An overview / tour of WP community, processes, places to be familiar with
 * As someone "new" to WP communities, I have spent a lot of time during the VE launch reading feedback pages, finding places to read, trying to make sense of processes and I have done this mostly by looking around. So something like this might be potentially useful for those new to WP communities. Ssastry (talk) 21:31, 23 August 2013 (UTC)
 * +1 Tychay (talk) 06:51, 24 August 2013 (UTC) I'd like to see some way to go "community-informed" from either no-community (currently) or community-driven (past), and not just an overview.

MediaWiki installation requirements for the future: should we start requiring Lua, Node.js etc

 * Leads
 * Time
 * Location
 * Audience

 * Discussion
 * Votes (6)
 * +1 Brion
 * +1 Tychay (talk) 06:52, 24 August 2013 (UTC) Also, path to consensus to above for releases (server images? not requiring/workaround?)?, what stuff in extensions should be merged into Core and when? We need to be more Bold here. Not recommending a break on what to merge in or not, but rather a framework where consensus can be achieved for these things instead of so much infrastructure living "out there" in extension land.
 * +1, again from what Terry said. Ironholds (talk) 16:26, 24 August 2013 (UTC)
 * +1 Focus on packaging: apt-get install mediawiki that pulls in php-tidy, APC, Memcached, Lua, Node / Parsoid, Varnish and sets up a full-featured MediaWiki setup. Gabriel Wicke (GWicke) (talk) 19:45, 24 August 2013 (UTC)
 * +1 Wild ideas: php.js, forking php from node, php-v8js, etc. Can we reduce the amount of configuration for small locally-used wikis and personal development? Cscott (talk) 17:58, 26 August 2013 (UTC)
 * +1 Superm401 - Talk 04:27, 27 August 2013 (UTC)
 * -1 RobLa-WMF (talk) - I don't think this topic is appropriate for a staff-biased discussion. This seems like a discussion that Mark y Markus to lead, probably at a Hackathon or other event that is not so closely tied to WMF-only attendance.  18:25, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

 * +1 Tychay (talk) 09:28, 24 August 2013 (UTC) : lots of talks to lots of things, perhaps in SPUR without anything concurrent to this on both days (we can't fit the entire tech staff, but a lot of it can attend this way).
