[jira] [Commented] (KAFKA-2364) Improve documentation for contributing to docs

["Ismael Juma (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2364?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14643179#comment-14643179 ] 

Ismael Juma commented on KAFKA-2364:
------------------------------------

Coincidentally a CONTRIBUTING.md was added today and it links to 2 pages that have more information. Can you please take a look and see if it's better now?

The website is sadly still in SVN, but we would be happy to move it to Git as per https://blogs.apache.org/infra/entry/git_based_websites_available

Help would be welcome as we are currently all busy with other tasks.

> While reading the documentation for kafka 8 I saw some improvements that can be made. But the docs for contributing are not very good at https://github.com/apache/kafka. It just gives me a URL for svn. But I am not sure what to do. Can the README.MD file be improved for contributing to docs?
> I have submitted patches to groovy and grails by sending PRs via github but  looking at the comments on PRs submitted to kafak it seems PRs via github are not working for kafka. It would be good to make that work also.
