DokuWiki Teams

Teams are the organizational units that create and maintain the various aspects of DokuWiki and its resources. If you'd like to help with DokuWiki, teams are the right way to start.

Each team has different tasks and responsibilities in the Dokuwiki projects. This of course includes software development but also covers things like writing documentation or managing the community. Have a look at the page of the individual teams linked below.

BTW: most teams do important work with writing little or no code. Yes, that means non-coders are more than welcome to join a team!

To join a team, have a look at the list of teams below and find the one (or more) that matches your interests and skills best. Edit that team's page and add your name and some info about you to the list of members. You should also subscribe to changes to that page.

Now join the DokuWiki Teams Mailing List. All teams organize via the DokuWiki Teams Mailing List. By sharing a communication channel between all teams, we make sure teams can easily interact with each other. The mailing list is also the best place to get in contact with a certain team.

You're now a member of the a DokuWiki team and thus a member of the DokuWiki Open Source project. Welcome

Next is to start working. Some teams maintain a list of current tasks on their team pages – have a look at them. But before you jump right into working, it's recommended to talk to them first . Just write a short mail to the mailing list, introduce yourself and tell your team mates what you'd like to work on.

These teams are already working on tasks and could use some help.
