Mozilla has an interesting practice of having a contribute.json schema for their projects, which includes a brief description, the key technologies used in the project, and a structured set of links to key project resources / ways to contribute:

  https://www.contributejson.org/schema

Given we have some energy lately on finding structured ways to help ASF projects better showcase themselves to newcomers, any interest in this?

Unless the schema gets widely used outside Mozilla, I don't know that we'd want to copy this, but really finding a simple way to describe the key "where's the source for the website so I can fix a typo", etc. list of resources would be really nice.

Or should we go all-in on our DOAP files, and add this kind of data, along with actually, y'know, updating the DOAP tooling?
