Hello bug bashers,
I have some fresh eyes, and wanted to record my experience before
getting used to how it works.
The path is a bit long to find you
Repro: always
Steps:
1. Go to http://www.gnome.org/
2. Click Contribute tab -> http://www.gnome.org/community/
Note: this page may have a bit of an identity crisis. Is this "The
GNOME Community" or "How to contribute". Its presentation is likely
overwhelming to a person new to GNOME. Compare this to the experience
at Ubuntu Community > Get Involved
http://www.ubuntu.com/community/participate
Note to self: need to propose better experience for
http://wordpress.org/ . There is a clue in that Ubuntu URL as well, I
also prefer the term "participate", as it is inherently more active
than "contribute"
3. Sucker! You really want to be at http://live.gnome.org/JoinGnome
4. Here lies a fork in the road http://live.gnome.org/Bugsquad or
http://live.gnome.org/BuildBrigade . BuildBrigade short description
could explicitly say "test automation" near the beginning or similar,
and the route to it is probably from within both testing and
development.
Note: http://live.gnome.org/GnomeLove seems misplaced in the whole
participate experience.
Actual results:
Took at least one more step, probably two, to find you then I would expect.
Now, I can already here some of you saying, "Well its easy for you to
point out problems, lets get solution oriented!", or "It's a wiki, so
update it." Sorry, for now, all I got is problems.
Thank you,

I can't grow without light,
Lloyd
