Contributing to GNOME documentation and localization

See the hacking/BoF days page for time and location information.

Subject

This is an onboarding workshop for newcomers interested in finding out how to start contributing to the GNOME project with translations, documentation, or both.

It is also an opportunity for the documentation writers and translators attending GUADEC 2018 to meet and discuss plans and ideas.

We are looking for mentees interested in being guided through the getting started process, and also for experienced mentors who want to help out at the workshop.
