# Meet Our Contributors - Ask Us Anything!
When Slack seems like it’s going too fast, and you just need a quick answer from
a human...
Meet Our Contributors gives you a monthly one-hour opportunity to ask questions
about our upstream community, watch interviews with our contributors, and
participate in peer code reviews.
## When:
Every first Wednesday of the month at the following times:
- 03:30pm UTC [Convert to your timezone].
## Where:
Follow along live: [Kubernetes YouTube Channel]
Ask questions: [#meet-our-contributors] Slack channel

## What You'll Gain By Participating:
- An opportunity to learn more about how to get started contributing to K8s
- A chance to get your PRs reviewed by members of the community
- Peer code review that can help you get more eyes on your code, or learn more
about a part of the Kubernetes code that may have you struggling
- A deeper understanding of the unique role that our contributors occupy in the
Kubernetes ecosystem as a whole
- Practical advice and hands-on tips for how you can get started as a Kubernetes
contributor, become a member, or otherwise contribute to the project
## What’s on-topic:
- How our contributors got started with k8s
- Advice for getting attention on your PR
- GitHub tooling and automation
- Your first commit
- kubernetes/community
- Testing
## What’s off-topic:
- End-user questions (Check out [#office-hours] on Slack and details [here])
## Submitting questions and/or code for review/walk through:
### Questions:
- Day of on Twitter - use the hashtag [#k8smoc] after your question
- Slack - Ask your question in [#meet-our-contributors]
Questions will be on a first-come, first-served basis. The first half of the
discussion will be dedicated to questions for contributors and in the second
half, we will pick a problem (in advance) for peer code review.
### Code snip / PR for peer code review / Suggestion for part of codebase walk through:
- At least 24 hours before the session to Slack channel ([#meet-our-contributors])
Problems will be chosen based on time commitment needed, the skills of the reviewer,
and if a large amount are submitted, need for the project.
## Call for Mentor Panelists!
Expectations of mentors:
- Be online 5 minutes early. You can look at questions in the queue by joining
the #meet-our-contributors Slack channel to give yourself some time to prepare.
- Expect questions about the contribution process, membership, navigating the
Kubernetes seas, testing, and general questions about you and your path to open
source/Kubernetes. It's okay if you don't know the answer!
- We will be using video chat (Zoom, but livestreaming through YouTube) but
voice-only is fine if you are more comfortable with that.
- Be willing to provide suggestions and feedback to make this process & experience
better!
