Ah, I was vaguely thinking about this the other day; that we should improve https://wiki.qemu.org/Contribute so that it puts contributions to documentation, the website, etc on a clearer footing that's more on par with "contribute code" (possibly by hiving off the "writing code" bits to a separate section).

We now seem to have two landing pages for "start contributing", though -- one on the main website and one on the wiki.

thanks

We now seem to have two landing pages for "start contributing", though -- one on the main website and one on the wiki.

Apart from the infrastructure part, everything else in the wiki page probably should be moved to the website.

Then, the wiki "Contribute" can be moved to "Contribute/Infrastructure" (and the link in the side bar changed from "Start Here" to "Project Infrastructure").

Thanks,

Paolo
