Seems like we could get documentation patches in quicker if all the
committers could handle them, rather than the the two or three who
submit these patches today. Let's scale with the size of the community.
Is there a write-up somewhere on how to do this?
There is this page, which should describe most of what you need:
http://db.apache.org/derby/manuals/dita.html
It's hiding in the drop-down box off the left when you click the
Documentation tab as "DITA source". I think a link from the main
documentation page might help make this easier to find.
I agree, it is too hard to find the information you need when you want
to become a new doc contributor or committer.
One thing I noticed the first time I wanted to contribute a doc patch,
was that on the "Community" tab/page [1], I found no mention of
documentation source, patches, or links to relevant doc information in
the section called "Contribute Code or Documentation". The information
there is very code-centric, as are the various wiki pages that are
linked to from that page.
