We have liftoff! Wagtail Space has started. There will be two days of "sprinting", where we work on (write code for) various aspects of the Wagtail CMS. On friday, there'll be a conference with presentations about Wagtail CMS.

Doors open

Slowly people start to arrive. We give them coffee. Our office will be their home for the next days.

Opening

At 10:00, Coen opens Wagtail Space.

After some housekeeping announcements, a short "icebreaker" round is played, where sprinters are asked to talk for three minutes with someone they don't yet know.

Sprint topics are discussed: the people who are leading a team, or who are "championing" a ticket, announce what they'll work on.

Sprint topics

The sprint topics are shared in a collaborative document.

Some topics are:

  • Getting started training

  • Helping new-to-Wagtail developers get up to speed

  • Various issues from the tracker, to name a few:

  • Fix building documentation

  • Multiple image uploading in modal

  • Adopt class based views

  • Content translation

  • Enhance the content translation experience.

  • Source language preview

  • To help with translations, content editors like to see the source string and translated string side-by-side. The goal is to create a preview panel to display the contents from some other language.

  • PO bulk import/export

  • Some sites let their content be translated by translation companies. The industry standard is to provide PO files, and get PO files back.

  • Documentation on how to deploy a Wagtail site
