The Wikimedia developer Summit main topic "How to grow our technical community https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Developer_Summit/2017/How_to_grow_our_technical_community" has nine proposals aiming to be accepted as pre-scheduled sessions. Mathematically speaking, it is very unlikely that we will have slots for all of them. Please help making a good selection by expressing your interest in your preferred candidates, by commenting/subscribing to your preferred tasks, or awarding them a token.
Pre-scheduled sessions are supposed to be preceded by active discussions, so the best way to support your preferred topics is by joining the discussion now.
