The obvious question is: could the Ubuntu Doc team be active upstream
even if we don't do some program with mentorship? What can we do to
attract those volunteers? What is currently wrong that makes them not
help upstream?

And if we have potential mentors, I guess the next step is to have them
all on gnome-doc-list and to get some discussion there on how to create
a mentorship program.

(removed release-team from cc since there's no point in having the
release-team cc'ed anymore, and I got tired of reading this thread
twice...)
