Koha DIY 2020

On 24-25 October, we have an opportunity for us to work together on planning and doing some things to improve our libraries and Koha, including contributing to the development project. (Previously called a hackfest! All levels of skill and experience are welcome!)

For those joining the hackfest in-person, we will be at Catalyst IT, 150 Willis Street. A reminder that the hackfest is for absolutely everyone. We're really excited to find ways for everyone to contribute to the global Koha project, whether that's through submitting your first patch, or helping with documentation, or strategising - there's something for all of us!

For those joining the hackfest online, we'll be available on IRC as usual, and look forward to talking to you all weekend.

Bug 26722 - [Omnibus] Use descriptive link texts
Keeping Julian's presentation about improving accessilibity in mind, there are some links that could use a better description. The omnibus bug serves as a starting point with the actual bugs linked to it.
