Discussion

  • [Jim DeLaHunt] Discord invitation link difficulties. When I follow https://discord.com/invite/vKTkwJKG?event=1347635566518210613, Discord tells me "Invite Invalid", "This invite may be expired, or you might not have permission to join". Note also that Google Calendar invite has a different link: https://discord.gg/RxKXyPYV?event=1303462925834522666. Should it be different? And, it causes Discord to give me the same error message. I am a very peripheral member of this group, so I am not bothered by not getting access via Discord. I can still read the HackMD text. But this Discord behaviour is probably not what is desired.

    • [Petr] Try this link: https://discord.gg/nECCQWk4up?event=1347635566518210613.
    • Thank you! That link causes Discord to offer me an invitation, which is great. But then Discord tells me that my browser (current Firefox on macOS) is not supported. Maybe I have to download the Discord app? And the error message says that Firefox is a supported browser. Curious.
    • Weird... I'm on Firefox on Linux & it works for me
    • [Jim] Petr's invitation link worked for me using Safari on macOS. Thank you for your help.

  • [Keith] The Translation team has been doing a lot of work.

  • [Keith] Wiki work is stalled for the moment, as the team had different, more urgent priorities pop up.

  • [Keith] Question about how to edit the python.org website; after PyCon focus might move towards that.

  • [Blaise] Been holding Sphinx office hours; not many people showed up. Some suggestions were to distinguish the audience:

    • have an asynchronous space for newbie questions (e.g. #sphinx on python.org Discourse, a Sphinx channel on Python Discord)
    • have a synchronous(ish) space for devs or contributors (e.g. the writeTheDocs slack folks want to contribute but the Sphinx contributor guide needs more guidance on how to navigate between docutils and sphinx . There is also a lot of subclassing that makes it hard for a new person to know where things are happening.
    • Make it easy for newcomers to lurk and observe activity before joining.
    • [Jim] Add office hours info to the support page. If I was working on a project and wanted to use Sphinx for docs, and I wanted help, I would end up on it. I don't see a mention of office hours on that page.

  • [Jeff] Still waiting for guidance on how to take over Indonesian Translation.

  • [Jeff] No update on the PEP 545 proposals.

  • [Jeff] Asking for advice about translation management.
