What do L2 members do?
We discuss project ideas, developed experimental software, perform quantitative & qualitative analyses and write about it here on meta. We hold regular hackathons where we work on projects together. We often start by proposing and supporting project ideas . Once we're ready to start work, we make a project page to report our progress.
What kind of support do projects need?
It depends a lot on what the project is intended to accomplish. If the idea is to develop a tool, someone will have to write the software (e.g., Software for quick processing of Wikidumps). If the idea is to perform a quantitative analysis, someone is going to have to get the data and perform the requisite statistics/visualization (e.g., Newcomer survival models). Often, a project will need a group of people to help perform a qualitative analysis (i.e., using your eyeballs. e.g., Newcomer quality). Most project ideas will list the support needed.
