Hello everyone,
I'd like to invite you all to an IRC Office Hours this coming Saturday, 28th July 2012 at 20:00 UTC in #wikimedia-office (time zone information: http://tinyurl.com/bmp7zaw).
In this meeting, I will be there to provide an update on my fellowship as well as answer any questions. I'll also appreciate any feedback, comments or suggestions on dispute resolution in general, and will be discussing the new universal dispute resolution wizard that is in development, which I could use some feedback and ideas on.
Please mark this date in your calendar if you wish to participate in the
discussion. I will send a reminder about this on Friday.
Regards,
Steven Zhang

Subject: IRC office hours about account creation and login redesign
To: Wikimedia Mailing List <wikimedia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org>
Hi all,
As you might have noticed, especially if you're an English Wikipedian, the
Editor Engagement Experiments team has been working on redesigning the
user experience of account creation, A/B testing new designs and
functionality for the past couple months.
We finished our final A/B test last week,[1] and we're now moving on to
make the features which tested well permanent.[2] In order to make sure
that the experience of signup and login are consistent, we also plan to
make some changes to the design of login.[3]
In order to answer any questions people might have and gather feedback,
we're holding the first office hours about our redesign work. We also plan
to enable the test version of the new account creation experience at 100%
(rather than 50/50, as previously) so that people can give it a try.
When: Saturday December 1, 2012. 19:00-20:00 UTC. Time conversion links
etc. are on Meta.[4]
Where: #wikimedia-office

Hi everyone,
Unlike previous years the big European Hackathon won't be in Berlin, but
in Amsterdam. We're aiming to do the hackathon in May 2013 with a
preference for the weekend of Saturday the 25th. To make sure this is a
good weekend I've set up a straw poll at
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Amsterdam_Hackathon_2013#Straw_Poll .
Please fill it out so we can finalize the date!
Thank you,
Maarten
