Now that we have more insight on the type of tasks, their difficulties, their scheduling, time to make this information public!

I created this first revision. A couple of example are missing. If you guys remember some of them, or if you want to change the example already there, feel free!

Asking also Marcia, just to make sure we're in line with the participation program.

It looks good to me too. 
But if we're switching over to MarionetteJS, how useful would it be for contributors to work on this?

Right. Done.

IMO, the example will be outdated, but not flow would be still valid. Do you think anything else would need update?

Adding mermi in case she wants to add any feedback.

Comment 7

[Marcia Knous [:marcia]]

I forgot to add in the previous comment that right now we don't have anything formalized around contribution paths with the Participation Team, so I think we can architect our own path here for now. I will take a look at this before Mozlando and weigh in with any other comments.

Comment 8

[Marcia Knous [:marcia]]

I made a few grammatical edits on the page.

The other comment I would have - we reference "main contributors" but how is someone supposed to know who to ask in the channel? We should probably link that back to a page that describes what everyone on the team works on.

Good thinking, I made the change. Thanks
