hi rits
21:10

MikeSmith: Hello :)
21:10
<MikeSmith>
it's typically quiet here on the weekends, especially at the time of day when people in Europe are away/offline
21:11
<MikeSmith>
I think you'll find it a lot more active on Monday
21:12
<MikeSmith>
rits: but anyway I'm here now :)
21:12
<rits>
MikeSmith: oh ya, ok no problem
21:12
<MikeSmith>
if you have any questions at this point I'm happy to help
21:13
<rits>
MikeSmith: great :), i wanted to discuss about the project https://wiki.mozilla.org/Outreachy/2016/December_to_March#Contribute_to_the_HTML_Standard.21
21:13
<MikeSmith>
OK
21:15
<MikeSmith>
so we have the source for the spec at https://github.com/whatwg/html
21:15
<MikeSmith>
and we have an issue tracker there https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues
21:15
<MikeSmith>
and we have some issues there which are labeled "good first bug"
21:15
<MikeSmith>
https://github.com/whatwg/html/labels/good%20first%20bug
21:15
<MikeSmith>
so that's one thing to look through
21:17
<rits>
MikeSmith: ok i will go through the bugs and work up on it
21:17
<MikeSmith>
OK
21:17
<MikeSmith>
we also have an older "good first bugs" list at https://goo.gl/WfGDTd
21:17
<MikeSmith>
rits: one approach I'd recommend is to find a bug that you really care a lot about personally
21:19
<rits>
MikeSmith: ok i will work with this thought, will be back with a good first bug :)
21:19
<MikeSmith>
super

<rits>
MikeSmith: Thanks :)
