> It's good to explain all the communication resources we use in GNOME. Encourage people to sign in into IRC early and to read Planet GNOME. Explain that a lot of information about GNOME projects can be found on the live.gnome.org wiki and that people can look at the Recent Changes there to see what pages have been recently updated. Explain that people can browse the code and change log for any project within GNOME on http://git.gnome.org/browse . Talk about Bugzilla and about the mailing lists archives being available online.

It really reminded me how many concepts one needs to learn to participate in the free and open source software development. Their installation instructions and slides might give you more ideas.
