Greetings!
Building on the success of our inaugural session, MW.org's WikiProject Extensions is
presenting our next MediaWiki Workshops for developers (volunteer and staff).
"MediaWiki's ResourceLoader" will be held on 23 February, 2012 at 21:00 UTC
in IRC (#wikimedia-dev).
This IRC workshop will be an opportunity to learn more about utilizing MediaWiki's
ResourceLoader. Also an opportunity to ask questions about developing MediaWiki
extensions.
Everyone is invited to attend. Developers interested in serving as "extensions"
or "ResourceLoader" experts are encouraged to signup as participants at:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Project:WikiProject_Extensions/Workshops#Med…
MediaWiki Workshops typically last one hour, and happen no more than twice a month to
present trainings, hold discussions and collaborate on community or WikiProject Extensions
projects. Facilitators host the session to introduce any presenters, determine the order
of questions, and generally helps to keep things going. Time of day will vary in order to
offer people in different parts of the world the opportunity to participate. Future topics
will likely include
MW.org documentation, API orientation and workshops similar to our
inaugural chat to prepare for each MediaWiki release.

MediaWiki.org's WikiProject SysAdmins will also likely host similar MediaWiki
Workshops to help third-party wiki system administrators. Stay tuned for more
information, and chime in at:

I look forward to seeing folks on Thursday! Please feel free to forward this along to any
interested folks.
