Proposing Jenkins Docs SIG

[Mark Waite]

In keeping with JEP-4, I'm posting to the developer mailing list my plan to create and lead the Jenkins Docs special interest group.

I'll submit a pull request to jenkins.io with the structure described in JEP-4.

The first Docs special interest group meeting is scheduled for Friday, May 10, 2019 at 13:00 UTC. Proposed meeting agenda is at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1uNNo0QJKPHnNp8PGr_jLI8p3K_94ZYD-M0evZOEZ93c/edit# . We'll be using Zoom for the meeting, URL https://zoom.us/j/557525312 .  We're using Zoom rather than Google Hangouts on Air so that we can test the Zoom account and so that we participants from China can attend the meeting.

Draft mission statement:

The Docs SIG focuses on improving Jenkins documentation. Improvements are targeted at both existing and new Jenkins users.  Scope of work includes reviewing improvement project ideas and working with potentials mentors and contributors in order to improve Jenkins documentation.

Thanks,
Mark Waite

Hi Mark, I would be happy to get involved with the Docs SIG. 1300 UTC will be too late for me to join the first meeting, but if you want to add me to any email discussions, GitHub groups, etc. please feel free!

That's great, Owen!

Would you be willing to help me test an open question?  I think we need more reviewers and more mentors for doc contributions.  As far as I can tell, members of the copy-editors team have permission to review pull requests to jenkins.io and commit those changes.  I want more people with permission to review and merge, but want to be sure that I've understood the permissions granted to members of that group.

You're a member of copy-editors.  Can you confirm that you're allowed to review jenkins.io pull requests, approve them, and merge them?

Thanks

Your time zone could be quite a benefit, since you're nicely located in the Asian time zones where we believe there are several others that would like to help with Jenkins docs.

Hey Mark, I just confirmed that I am able to review, merge, etc. I would be happy to try and do more of this in the future!

Thanks!  That's what I needed.  One of my requests will be that mentors in the docs SIG should request membership in the copy-editors team so that they can immediately help with reviewing pull requests.
