Hi Sharan,
I had to refer to this email to find the sprint in the Jira dropdown, could we please in
the future not name our sprints "OFBiz Community Day...." ?
Thanks

Hi Everyone
I've created a sprint for our Community Day called 'Community Day 3 -2016. If
you are planning to work any Jira Issues then please add it to the sprint so
that we can get some statistics around what was done.
As usual our I will start the sprint today and close it on Tuesday morning so
we cater for different timezones and also give people some contingency to
finish off any work they have started.
As well as the mailing lists, this time we would like to try out using our
OFBiz Community HipChat room to help with Community Day collaboration. If you
would like to join the room the link is below:

Remember even if you can spare only an hour – it all helps. Let's see if we
can close some more of those Jira issues, improve OFBiz and have some fun
working together.
Thanks
Sharan

Hi Everyone
Our third Community Day for 2016 is coming up on 17th September. If you are not
sure what our Community Days are all about then please take a look at the
following wiki page
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/OFBiz+Community+Days
If you would like to participate then please start thinking about what area or
task you'd like to work on.
Please see below for some possible focus areas for the community day.
* Continue Work on Framework Re-factor*
A lot of work has already been done, but there is a lot left to do. This could
be a good time to see how you could help with tidying up our existing code.
This effort really benefits OFBiz by making it easier for developers to work
with and more efficient to run. Some of the changes needed are simple and other
are more complex, so please take a look and choose something that you'd like to
help with.
*Testing, Review and Committing Patches*
One area that is always important is the testing and applying of patches. Our
Community members have continually provided patches for bugs and improvements
but before committing thems we need to test them across the various versions to
make sure they do what they are supposed to do.
Patches can become out of date very quickly meaning that if they are not tested
early enough then they can miss out on being included. We have a large number
of patches available so this could be a good opportunity for test, review and
commit.
*Documentation*
We know that our documentation could be a whole lot better so any contribution
that helps us improve our current documentation is welcome.
*Jira Sprint*
As usual I will create a Jira sprint in preparation for the Community Day so
once created please start adding your Jira tasks to it. This Jira Sprint helps
us track and report on the work done during the Community Day so please try to
make sure your work is included.
*HipChat Community Collaboration Room*
A HipChat room for OFBiz has been created and it has been enabled with Guest
Access which means that anyone from the Community can join it using the link
below:
https://www.hipchat.com/g4vOayvmc
For our next Community Day on 17th September, I think it would be good to try
it out to see if it it helps with collaboration.
Please add the date to your diary and let's see if we can do some work, have
fun and enjoy working together on our Community Day.
Thanks
Sharan
