> ---------------
> Here is the IRC log of the February 19 meeting and a short summary  
> is below: http://pastebin.com/f16e96f31
> The main item on the agenda was to discuss the MBD Editorial guide  
> for Drupal.org. Overall it was agreed that the guide doesn't pose  
> any particular problems and largely lines up with the existing  
> guide. We do want to make some tweaks and then work to incorporate  
> it into the existing style handbook page. To allow everyone to edit  
> and comment on the guide, Lee created a new page under the  
> Documentation Community Initiatives section. We'd like to get this  
> doc tweaked and rolled in before the Drupalcon DC sprint, happening  
> March 7.
> The only major issue with the MBD guide is the requirement to use  
> HTML entities for typography (e.g. em dashes and smart quotes). Todd  
> and Shannon volunteered to take on reviewing/working with various  
> Drupal solutions (like the Typogrify module) to automate these  
> changes.
> We also talked briefly about the Drupalcon sprint and I'd love to  
> get some volunteers to help people find tasks, answer questions and  
> monitor IRC. Lee and Joel stepped up to help at the sprint and John  
> has volunteered to help in the IRC channel, even though he isn't  
> attending. We'll need a few more people to help cover the day and  
> I'll be making another post specifically about this shortly.
