The new getting involved page is nice but it doesn't really address the
naive visitor's question of "I want to help, what should I do?" It seems
Sugar Labs Centric not volunteer Centric.
Maybe supplement it with a "How can I help?" page - Here are some quick
thoughts.
-----
Teachers - Join the education or deployment team and help us apply Sugar to
learning in your subject and/or geographical areas. Try Sugar with your
students.
Middle and High School Students - Join the Testing team, learn how to use,
test and if you want even develop Sugar. Report bugs and help write
documentation.
Programmers - Join Development or start in Testing and gain familiarity with
Sugar. Write and Sugarize Activities!
Parents - Try Sugar with your kid. Use your professional skills to help
Sugar
Marketing Experts - Help desperately need on our Marketing Team help us tell
the world about Sugar.
Graphic Artists - Help needed in Design and Marketing
Writing Skills? - Be a Wiki Gardner, help write Marketing Material, help
write documentation
Translators - What languages do we especially need?
---Other type of people/skills we want to list? Other tasks? Did every team
get mentioned?
