Documentation sprint with Eric Holscher

In this sprint we will be focussing on improving the documentation of different python projects. Everybody is welcome to propose projects. At the beginning of the sprint, people willing to lead a group will have the opportunity to briefly explain which issues they would like to work on. And the rest of the people will be able to join any group they want.

Some of the projects that will be proposed:

• pandas
• matplotlib
• jupyter
• Django
• numpy

For this sprint, we will be honoured by the visit of Eric Holscher. Eric is a director at the Python Software Foundation. Eric is also co-founder of Read the Docs the de-facto platform for publishing Python projects documentation (used by lots of projects including jupyter, requests, pillow to name few). Eric is also co-founder of Write the Docs, a global community of people who cares about documentation.
