Clarify and communicate 5ftF definition #119

@iandunn

Description

@iandunn

Splitting off of #83

Based on the comments below and the accepted proposal:

  • Publish a proposal to define what counts as a 5ftF contribution (@angelasjin, @josephahaden)
  • Decide what counts as a 5ftF contribution (@angelasjin, @josephahaden)
  • Clearly articulate the criteria in the sign-up process and FAQ. Otherwise lots of people will continue thinking that they contribute 40 hours a week to the Plugin Review Team, simply because their company's plugin in the Plugin Directory, etc.
  • Communicate 5ftF definition in community spaces to raise awareness.
  • create a FAQ page with a question like "what counts as a 5ftF contribution?" and anything else that'd be useful. incorporate language from the communication above
  • Add FAQ page to the main menu
  • tweak the Expectations and For Organizations pages w/ some basic references to what qualified. link those basic references to the FAQ for more details
  • integrate the definition into signup workflows, since most people won't read the FAQ/Expectations pages
    • Add a message to the Profiles edit page asking to only count hours that are contributed to official teams, rather than personal/company projects.
    • look for other places where it could be useful

#121 is a follow-up after we've evaluated how effective those changes have been.
