• You can contribute to the Marketing Team by doing work that has been outlined in the various GitHub issues. In some cases this means just adding your feedback (which is very useful) or questions.
• Please track any work and link any materials you create on the related GitHub

Weekly meetings

We conduct a weekly meetings that anyone can attend live or asynchronously every Tuesday at 15:00 UTC. At this meeting we review team and project news and provide a list of active GitHub issues for attendees to review and comment on.

The email instructions for contributor day included instructions for wordpress.org and Slack accounts, but not for Github. Maybe this should have been there too.

Yes absolutely!!! That is something we could probably address in conjunction with this ticket: #295

@shreyans-tamang could you add your comment there as well?
