Get involved Tab for the About page Draft »

My initial suggestion was to represent all teams, then I think it is possible to show them from a user's role, talants, desires and abilities. But grouping teams or telling in short about all possible tasks is a lot of information in which users can be lost. So, I am suggesting to highlight the main difference: technical and non-technical areas with listed easiest tasks which can be accomplished and add a link to the Contributor orientation tool (which needs to be updated and restored). And non-technical areas need to be listed first.

If this will work well, we can bring more new people, but of course not all of them will become contributors and to raise conversion of this pipeline, we need to think throughout the whole new contributors journey from this page as starting point (and other possible places of initial contact) to moment when newcomer can contribute on a regular basic and already hooked in into the awesome community we have. And it looks like the Mentorship program can play an important role in this journey.
