Ah I see, is there a plan for when to start managing it again?

Well, there is also a 1.6 backlog board :-)

It's probably not so important to worry about which board these cards
should live on - the main thing is to actually address them.  The main
problems right now are a) that most of the doc tasks are unassigned
and/or completely neglected, and b) the documentation is utterly
bewildering for newcomers ;-/

We need to prioritise fixing the first documentation which a newcomer
to Crowbar first encounters or would like to encounter, since the main
objective is to grow the community.  The first port of call is most
likely http://crowbar.github.io/ and I guess most people are likely to
click on the Find Out More button first which leads to:

    http://crowbar.github.io/docs/getting-started/

Unfortunately AFAICS that page is currently useless, since it doesn't
provide any download links.  The first item listed is "Configuring the
Network" - hardly appropriate for the beginning of a quickstart guide!
Even the 3rd item "Installing Crowbar" doesn't explain how to install
Crowbar.  Whilst glaring gaps such as these remain, I can't imagine
the Crowbar community ever growing :-/  So yes, a Docs Hack Day is much
needed.

Thanks for being open to this discussion!!
