  **Please always open a review! **Committed and pushed changes are deployed 
directly to live site. People make mistakes, it's normal, and reviews reduce

useless.

  I agree with this point. If potential devs have problems with English and are 
curious enough, they'll use their favorite Page Translate service. It won't be 
ideal but at least it will be the most up-to-date translation.

the user installs krusader from a stable distro (the latest 
Debian/Fedora/openSUSE/etc), then they read to use phabricator, and they try to 
reach it... which won't exist anymore.
  
  
  And I agree even more with this. I believe the majority of people just use 
what their distro suggests and this info will be outdated inevitably. Current 
dev affairs don't depend on the app version.

  +1. Toni, what you propose is a good change, however I think we should direct 
our efforts on keeping the online page as much detailed and updated as 
possible. It will be great to have starting steps for each type of work (for 
example, want to do Bug Triaging - go to the specific bugzilla link showing the 
list of not triaged bugs and try to repro bugs one by one, and then post your 
comments in the bugs).
  
  @yurchor, in any case, the changes to the docs shall be made only in 
`master`, since `stable` is in the doc-freeze mode, correct?
