I was planning on hosting the spanish breakout room on the America event only, and participate as a "regular" volunteer in the other session. Would that work? I am not sure how much time/jumping between rooms I'd be supposed to do

- Be inclusive and kind

The sprint will be happening on Zoom, the sign up instructions are available on Meetup, please try to join on the starting time so you can recieve proper help and guidance for the sprint. There will be breakout rooms inside the Zoom call that participants will be assigned to:
- Women and Non binary folks: this breakout room is specifically for women and non binary folks, we hope you have a meaningful space here where you're heard!

I have mixed feelings about the wording. Maybe it's just me but I can see this being interpreted as women and non binary folks will only be heard here


These breakout rooms aren't rigid, you can choose which one you wish to be in, they're created solely to help us help you!

I'd probably separate volunteer info from participant info (i.e. the volunteer info can be in "help with the sprint").

- They are being persistently rude
- They are a spammer

not sure if this is for volunteers, for participants or for both.

### Tentative structure of the Sprint

- All participants join, the first 5-10 mins are spent with everyone introducing and saying hi
- Participants are redirected to the board consisting of available issues that they can choose [from here](https://github.com/pymc-devs/pymc/projects/4)

I have said it multiple times already but I would recommend very strongly that everyone does a docstring update as first PR and work on other issues as 2nd contribution. I'd therefore show only the docstring tutorial link if participants are to read this (which might be a bit too harsh, I don't know) but I think both should be here at the very least, otherwise the docstring contributions get a bit lost as "one more issue" when they have guidance so much more detailed than any of the other issues, and it can provide contributions for all participants by itself.

- All participants join, the first 5-10 mins are spent with everyone introducing and saying hi
- Participants are redirected to the board consisting of available issues that they can choose [from here](https://github.com/pymc-devs/pymc/projects/4)
- If a participant doesn't find a suitable issue here they're encouraged to ask the volunteers for help, who will suggest an issue or task based on their said skills
- Participants go to breakout rooms and work on their issues, they should make a comment on the issue they're interested in, after which volunteers will update that issue on the Sprint Dashboard for clarity.

Careful here because there are several issues on which multiple people can work at the same time
