The first part of our May meeting will begin with a brief presentation from Melissa Anderson (eliza411) on how to get involved with the Drupal documentation team, followed by a presentation from Bill Fitzgerald (bonobo) from FunnyMonkey about how to review code. Learn how code review benefits experienced and new contributors alike and how it improves the community. Then, join in for hands-on code review in small groups or, if it's your preference, get started working with Drupal documentation.
After FunnyMonkey's hands-on workshop, we welcome out-of-town guest Alan Palazollo (zzolo) who will expand on code review skills, explaining how to release code on Drupal.org. We'll finish the evening with a sprint to approve full project applications led by zzolo at the Lucky Lab.

Contributing to Drupal.org documentation
As someone who would be far more comfortable working in documentation, I thought it would be ideal to present a brief introduction to working with documentation on Drupal.org as well. That way, when we dive into the hands-on portion, there will be something for everyone.
