== Berlin hackathon thoughts ==
* Which projects will be looking for new contributors?
** pywikipedia bot + English Wikipedia Unblock Ticket Response System especially
* What is the required knowledge for new contributors?
** For each such thing, where's the hackathon-official doc for that?
** Who will be on the ground helping?
* Where is the list of entry-level tasks for those projects?
* Who will take the time to talk to people about their background and identify good first bugs?
* Ensuring that there are high-quality laptop setup instructions, preferably cross-platform, for the tech tools required for these projects, e.g. pywikipediabot
* Ensuring the schedule has time for laptop setup and that we find on-the-ground volunteers to help address development environment problems newcomers will face.
* What problems did people face in previous times?
** Is there a list of past attendees who we can ask an exit survey? A year later is late, but better late than never
