Per <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130127033823/http://make.wordpress.org/community/mentions/andrea_r/" class="mention">@andrea_r</a>‘s earlier post, this channel should be staffed 24/7 with at least one person able to point potential/new contributors in the right direction. My guess is that it won’t be very busy (at least at first), so it’ll be mostly a matter of idling and just responding when someone comes in. With contributors all over the world (making it nearly impossible to schedule real-time chats) I’m thinking that it shouldn’t be too hard to get volunteers. It’ll be Andrea’s job to decide on the volunteer schedule, but I’d recommend making it a weekly one that repeats for the sake of ease, and letting people swap shifts as needed. </p> <p>Anyway, the channel is live at irc.freenode.net #wordpress-contribute. Once we get the coverage squared away we can start publicizing it and work it into documentation, make sites, etc.</p> </div> <div class="discussion" style="display: none"> <p> <img alt="" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130127033823im_/http://0.gravatar.com/avatar/84987b436214f52ec0b04cd1f8a73c3c?s=16&d=http%3A%2F%2F0.gravatar.com%2Favatar%2Fad516503a11cd5ca435acc9bb6523536%3Fs%3D16&r=G" class="avatar avatar-16 photo" height="16" width="16"/> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130127033823/http://profiles.wordpress.org/users/jane/" rel="external nofollow" class="url">Jen Mylo</a>, <img alt="" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130127033823im_/http://1.gravatar.com/avatar/5fb183ebd78788e2fc89e7d5e1e64bc6?s=16&d=http%3A%2F%2F1.gravatar.com%2Favatar%2Fad516503a11cd5ca435acc9bb6523536%3Fs%3D16&r=G" class="avatar avatar-16 photo" height="16" width="16"/> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130127033823/http://twitter.com/#!/JerrySarcastic" rel="external nofollow" class="url">Jerry Bates (JerrySarcastic)</a>, <img alt="" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130127033823im_/http://1.gravatar.com/avatar/3a0805f9cfce7d99874b532a283851a5?s=16&d=http%3A%2F%2F1.gravatar.com%2Favatar%2Fad516503a11cd5ca435acc9bb6523536%3Fs%3D16&r=G" class="avatar avatar-16 photo" height="16" width="16"/> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130127033823/http://wordsforwp.com/" rel="external nofollow" class="url">Siobhan</a>, and 3 others are discussing. <a href="#" class="show-comments">Toggle Comments</a> </p> </div> <div class="bottom-of-entry"> </div> <ul id="comments-31" class="commentlist inlinecomments"> <li id="comment-1263" class="comment byuser comment-author-andrea_r even thread-even depth-1"> <img alt="" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130127033823im_/http://1.gravatar.com/avatar/19370a2484593358d3d903edfbcc2e6a?s=32&d=http%3A%2F%2F1.gravatar.com%2Favatar%2Fad516503a11cd5ca435acc9bb6523536%3Fs%3D32&r=G" class="avatar avatar-32 photo" height="32" width="32"/> <h4> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130127033823/http://studiopress.com/" rel="external nofollow" class="url">Andrea Rennick</a> <span class="meta"> <abbr title="2013-01-17T19:19:17Z">7:19 pm <em>on</em> January 17, 2013</abbr> <span class="actions"> <a class="thepermalink" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130127033823/http://make.wordpress.org/community/2013/01/17/wordpress-contribute/#comment-1263" title="Permalink">Permalink</a> | <a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130127033823/http://make.wordpress.org/community/2013/01/17/wordpress-contribute/#respond" title="Reply" onclick="return addComment.moveForm("commentcontent-1263", "1263", "respond", "31")">Reply</a> </span> </span> </h4> <div id="commentcontent-1263" class="commentcontent"><p>Holler at me here or on twitter too.</p> </div> </li> <li id="comment-1264" class="comment odd alt thread-odd thread-alt depth-1"> <img alt="" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130127033823im_/http://1.gravatar.com/avatar/312a558dc3619f40b429d60b6fde9ee1?s=32&d=http%3A%2F%2F1.gravatar.com%2Favatar%2Fad516503a11cd5ca435acc9bb6523536%3Fs%3D32&r=G" class="avatar avatar-32 photo" height="32" width="32"/> <h4> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130127033823/http://www.carriedils.com/" rel="external nofollow" class="url">Carrie</a> <span class="meta"> <abbr title="2013-01-17T19:29:35Z">7:29 pm <em>on</em> January 17, 2013</abbr> <span class="actions"> <a class="thepermalink" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130127033823/http://make.wordpress.org/community/2013/01/17/wordpress-contribute/#comment-1264" title="Permalink">Permalink</a> | <a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130127033823/http://make.wordpress.org/community/2013/01/17/wordpress-contribute/#respond" title="Reply" onclick="return addComment.moveForm("commentcontent-1264", "1264", "respond", "31")">Reply</a> </span> </span> </h4> <div id="commentcontent-1264" class="commentcontent"><p>I’m in.
