This is now the canonical source of documentation for the NYCCamp.org project. Please feel free to update this wiki when needed. "BE BOLD!"(tm)
Join us in #nyccamp on freenode.net's IRC to chat about NYC Camp. Please join and stay awhile -- there's a lot of important notifications and communications happening in the channel :)
We have a weekly sprint, Thursday night from 7-11 pm EST.

- githubbot - joins/leaves the channel to post notifications on commits and pull requests. Configured as a webhook service on github.com.
Issues are tracked on GitHub at http://github.com/NYC-Camp/website/issues.
We also use a PM tool called Trello. For 2014, this is: https://trello.com/b/ddrb1mw7/website-development. If you wish to get more involved beyond the github issue queue, then you can request access to Trello by contacting @mirie (mai on IRC).
There are already a lot of good resources and documentation online, with agile open source distributed development converging on best practices. Although you may find local development hasn't necessarily gained universal traction, it has generally helped to bring about more agreement over best practices.
If there’s one underlying principle here it’s good communication and good code should go hand in hand. A good rule of thumb for developers to follow is, whatever project you are working on, be logged into its respective channel when you are working on it. So don't be shy, join the #nyccamp channel :D
Another more specific example of this would be: When you add a pull request, check in the channel or watch for comment notifications from Github and/or the channel. Also, be sure to include in your issue or pull request any names (you can use '@' + github handle, example: @mirie) of people you would like to specifically involve in the discussion/feedback.
We also have an email for the team: team@nyccamp.org. Contact @mirie to get added to this list.
