== Grading ==
# Create a page for your summaries by date ([http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Newsgroup_summaries:mozilla-dev-apps-thunderbird here is an example]).
# Create your summary like [http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Newsgroup_summaries:mozilla-dev-apps-thunderbird:2006-09-29 this]. NOTE the page title format: http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Newsgroup_summaries:mozilla-dev-apps-thunderbird:2006-09-29
# Provide a link on our wiki in your summary page (like [http://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/index.php/[Mozilla.dev.apps.thunderbird |this]])
All of this must be done each Friday so that it can be announced in the Mozilla community on [http://developer.mozilla.org MDC]. If you have questions, please speak to me (dave).
Feel free to put your name(s) on your summary somewhere so that people get to know you as they read your work each week.
== FAQ vs. Summary ==
Some newsgroups are more FAQ than Summary. If that is the case, you should follow the instructions on creating an [http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Frequently_Asked_Questions FAQ on MDC] instead of, or in addition to, creating a summary as outlined above.
You can and should publish your FAQs to MDC just like the summaries.
== What if my newsgroup has no traffic this week? ==
Some newsgroups are very busy, and others have little or no traffic in a given week. If you find that there is no activity in your newsgroup, you should dig through the group's archives and compile some FAQ questions, following the instructions [http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Frequently_Asked_Questions here on MDC].
