We've used our blog, social media, conference presentations, etc., to reach out for volunteers, including developers. For example, this is a blog post we did a while ago: https://blogs.apache.org/OOo/entry/call_for_development_volunteers As you can see, it refers the reader to the website for more information. When we see a new person on the mailing list we point them to these orientation pages as well. Feature ideas change quickly, so we don't put those on the website. But they show up in two other places: 1) Issues in Bugzilla with the assigned to field set to a person. 2) On the CWiki we have a page to collect ideas for releases and to track the release plan. You can see the 4.1 page here: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/AOO+4.1+Release+Planning > We must improved this.
