I was not aware of this aspect from ComRel, especially when in the wiki page |
| 11 |
states: |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
"handles many personnel-related tasks, solving conflicts and also ensuring that |
| 14 |
the Gentoo Code of Conduct and proper and professional behavior is followed |
| 15 |
across Gentoo's borders." |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
To my understanding, this is more like a "problem solving" project rather than a |
| 18 |
"first contact" project. |

Agree on that, but what happens to people that do not know how exactly they want |
| 28 |
to help? or don't want to specifically help with tree work? While our |
| 29 |
documentation about contributing is good, it may be a bit overwhelming for |
| 30 |
someone discovering Gentoo Linux. It may be good to have some supporting point |
| 31 |
to all the documentation. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
Talking about IRC, it was my understanding (as veremitz pointed) #gentoo is a |
| 34 |
user support channel for the installation process, and that makes looking for |
| 35 |
info about projects, or other related stuff off-topic... |
