Hello:)

Here is the poll:
https://date.chapril.org/yTOADLpXgsU4741L
You can come and leave at any time during the session.

There are a lot of patches (185!) waiting for someone to test and 
confirm that they do what they advertise. So there need to be more 
people that test them. Otherwise they wait during month or years!

That's one of the easiest way to contribute to Koha. No need for 
particular skills, just basic Koha usage.
We will use a VoIP call + chat tool [1] to speak and eventually 
screenshare. It's possible to join without sound and only use chat. So 
if you are at the front desk and there are not much patrons you can 
still test patches ^^ And also it's easier if you aren't comfortable 
with oral english.

No need to have a local Koha instance. Just with a web browser we can 
use the sandboxes [2] to have temporary Kohas to test most of patches 
and do whatever we want without bad consequences.

The hours are large to try to accommodate a much people as possible in 
the Americas 🌎, Africa & Europe 🌍.
People from Asia 🌏 or other parts of the world 🌐: tell me if you are 
interested as well. So we can plan together another session with hours 
better for your timezone :)

Cheers,

[1] Libre of course (Jitsi Meet or eventually Big Blue Button)
