I think there is room for some small targeted improvements to that doc. There is no link anywhere on that page to this mailing list - so the mention of it in the FAQ could be made a link. This page has most of the current guidelines about when posting to this list is warranted (with links): https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/internals/contributing/triaging-tickets/ As far as other additions, the docs, like the code goes through a process of submitting a ticket and patch - so if you have an idea, I would start that discussion on the ticket tracker. Things don't usually require a pre-discussion here unless it is something contentious. I will say that you will need to consider the practical side that contributor docs need to be concise, too wide a scope of "how to communicate on the internet" will create its own barrier via sheer mass of docs, so understand there is a line to tread. -Preston -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
