2) The work is naturally "bite sized". You can be an effective QA
volunteer working 1 hour a week or 40 hours a week. There are tasks
of every size. Ditto for Translators.
This is also true with documentation. There are a number of tasks that
can be performed in an hour or possibly even less.
In other fields we notice that it is important to involve and empower
new volunteers quickly and easily. For example, a new documentation
volunteer would now have the problem that he needs a wiki account
created (and he needs someone to do it, since registration is currently
disabled) and then a welcome message on what to do, and then a list of
tasks...
If the more active people here could have all necessary privileges to
answer prospective volunteers with a "Welcome, we created a wiki account
for you, a couple of small tasks that you can do to start are X and Y",
this would be much more effective.
Should you wish to try it, let us know and we'll look into what's needed
to give you (Keith, or other active volunteers who want to take care of
this) the necessary privileges.
Regards,
Andrea.
