Unlocking Drupal Core: Your Path to Active Contribution
Len is a long time contributor to Drupal core. He will talk a little about how he started to get involved and how he sustains his involvement in the development of Drupal core.
Along the way you will learn about Drupal Community initiatives. What are they? How are they different from the Strategic initiatives? Why are they done? Len will showcase the Bugsmash Initiative, which is a community initiative, and use this as an example of how to set up and join community initiatives. He will share some of the impact this Initiative has had and also some of the things that he learned about what it takes to make a Community Initiative work.
Finally he will talk you through how YOU can get involved in Drupal core development and tell you why you would want to do this.
