Looking for issue good for first contribution #495
Description
Hi @mhdawson,
we met at NodeInteractive and as I told you I would like to start contributing to this working group. Is there any issue that is a good starting point for someone that is doing his first contribution?
Thanks

Sorry been catching up after being away at Node Interactive. Will try to come up with a good suggestion this week.

@Fishrock123 thanks for the reminder, will bring it up in WG meeting to day to see what kind of suggestions I can come up with. @piccoloaiutante you may also want to join the meeting today to listen to get a feel with respect to the issues being discussed/worked.

I guess it depends on what the interest might be. I can see a few things between this and the github-bot group.
piccoloaiutante commentedon Oct 11, 2016
@mhdawson @jbergstroem i can join you in WG meeting in half hour so we can discuss about it
jbergstroem commentedon Oct 11, 2016
@piccoloaiutante lets keep the discussion post the meeting. I can stick around a bit longer and I'm sure @mhdawson can too! You're still welcome to join in and listen to our meeting.
piccoloaiutante commentedon Oct 11, 2016
@jbergstroem no problem, i'll follow it. Then i'm not sure that i'll stick around after it since i'm based in italy, but anyway we can go on with this issue.

Welcome @piccoloaiutante ! Here are some ideas:
.rdpand/or.remminafiles (I have a rough script for Remmina that can serve as a starting point).host_vars).vcbuild.batsupport for Expand coverage of v8 testing from Node.js tree #387 , porting what is currently in theMakefile(introduced initially in test: run v8 tests node#4704 ).piccoloaiutante commentedon Nov 7, 2016
@joaocgreis I have a first draft of ansible script for supporting widows update and reboot. This should cover your first two points. I tested it on windows 10 and windows server 2012. Can you have a quick look at it before I submit a PR for it just to see that I'm on track of what you're expecting?

@joaocgreis i can get it Windows Server 2008R2 from msdn. Don't worry i'll be back with info about it. Thanks

@joaocgreis i spent a lot of time trying to install power shell 3.0 on windows 2008 R2 so i could run the setup script but i didn't succeed. Is there anything particular that i should do for provisioning this OS?
joaocgreis commentedon Nov 21, 2016
@piccoloaiutante I've used the script at http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/intro_windows.html#getting-to-powershell-3-0-or-higher before, it worked for me. (Feel free to move this conversation to IRC or email, I don't mind interacting more to help you)

I also had issues updating PowerShell in my local VM, the script didn't work. But the instructions at https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/setup/installing-windows-powershell#a-namebkmkinstallingonwindows7andwindowsserver2008r2ainstalling-windows-powershell-on-windows-7-and-windows-server-2008-r2 did it.

As noted by @nschonni in #750 (comment) , we don't have a
CONTRIBUTING.md. We could add one pointing to https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md , with also a placeholder to mention any differences or additions. Furthermore, the templates (https://github.com/nodejs/node/tree/master/.github) would also be good to have. This could probably be a good first contribution.mhdawson commentedon Sep 8, 2017
@piccoloaiutante I think we can close this now as you are part of the WG :)
