Re: Introducing Ruth - documentation
We should start with our Confluence wiki: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MYRIAD/Myriad+Home It's also recommended that we create a proper website at http://myriad.incubator.apache.org/ I'd rather we didn't rely on gh-pages, especially since the github repo is just a mirror of Apache git, so we can't actually use github PRs without downloading the patches, applying them locally, and then pushing to Apache git.

I'll let her reply to this and send it to start getting feedback. One thing she needs is a place to start posting to. Looking at other Apache projects, it seems like the most common practice is to use a gh-pages branch of the main github https://github.com/apache/incubator-myriad. Adam - could you create the branch so she has something to send PRs to? Jim - you seem to be our resident web/css expert. Any chance you could build a simple layout for the doc site? Thanks! Will
Re: Introducing Ruth - documentation
Hi Ruth. Can I (as mentor) request that we go through the formalism of asking Ruth to submit contributor PRs that an existing committer reviews and merges for awhile before we hold a vote about granting her committership? It's the Apache Way to treat everybody the same after the initial bootstrapping is done.
