<snip> infrastructure side (which is in fact too generic term that could be better described). I am totally in love with What can I do for Mozilla?[1] which is open source, so why not steal this wonderful idea? But it also means we need a way to communicate with people interested in helping us: at least an IRC channel and new mailing list.
I still believe we should take some initiative on thse issues. What we have so far is: - Getting involved page, not sure where it's linked from? Only findable on the wiki. [1] Which links to a nice list of projects with an already dedicated irc channel and mailing lists. (I was not even aware of #archlinux-projects). But does anyone ever find this page? I think we should at least link it from archlinux.org. - The mozilla idea, I'm up for it? Should we host it under whatcanidofor.archlinux.org? Note that this also requires some effort from the team's side. We should however keep our bugtracker tidy and maybe label "new contributor" tickets since this is quite crucial to get new people in. I however have also some thoughts on things which these days have no tickets, but could be worked on for example: - revamping the Ruby guidelines. They should be as nice as the Python ones - Hardening our custom systemd services and creating bugs with patches, for example grafana has hardening applied now. [5] - Man pages for more devtools binaries. I'm quite sure others others have such projects on their mind which are not publicly findable yet.
