I've used prose in an attempt to provide context for newbies to understand the larger picture. Sometimes the same information is provided in different sections, from different perspectives - e.g. fixing easy issues vs. writing easy issues.\r\n\r\nIdeally, there is an easy path from here to all relevant information for contributors, but that is not quite true yet, and there are types of information that are just not available. What I *want* this page to do is to link to other, 'living', landing pages for teams, initiatives, topics, etc., and I've tried to do that as much as possible, but there are some categories of information that are not organized anywhere, so sometimes there is more exposition here than I'd like.\r\n\r\nThis page occasionally links to, and thus endorses, unofficial projects of interest. I want to be clear though that it is not a free-for-all and we are not open to listing arbitrary projects here.\r\n\r\nWith the quantity and specificity of info here it'll be prone to bitrot and need periodic attendance.\r\n\r\nProblems:\r\n\r\n* The prominent link to 'an overview of the organization, processes, and policies' links somewhere uncomprehensive. I'd like to write this, but there's a lot of info to cover and I want a break from writing for a bit.\r\n* Topics of blogging and translation aren't covered.\r\n* #rust-libs may not be the right place to direct people who are interested in out-of-tree libs.\r\n\r\nI've run out of steam on this and want to get other eyes on it. The libs and tooling sections were the last I hit and it shows.\r\n\r\nAlthough they are very different, my main influence was [Scala's page](http://scala-lang.org/contribute/).\r\n\r\nFixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-www/issues/177.\r\n\r\ncc @aturon @steveklabnik "},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/rust-lang/rust-www/issues/comments/169065140","html_url":"https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-www/pull/229#issuecomment-169065140","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/rust-lang/rust-www/issues/229","id":169065140,"user":{"login":"aturon","id":709807,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/709807?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/aturon","html_url":"https://github.com/aturon","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/aturon/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/aturon/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/aturon/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/aturon/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/aturon/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/aturon/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/aturon/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/aturon/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/aturon/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-01-05T17:12:27Z","updated_at":"2016-01-05T17:12:27Z","body":"@brson: :+1:\r\n\r\nBtw, are you planning to land these various PRs separately?
