docs, getting started, ux of bigtop contribs
Hey Bigtoppers,
With a little flurry of new activity to kick off 2016, think we can use this
as push to gather notes and new docs on the process to look towards
continual improvement of the process of new folks adding their perspective
component.
I will try to keep pulse of the latest activity and follow up with some
people directly to see where we can pull out some tribal knowledge and
include as part of new docs.
I have created this jira for tracking:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-2284

Having a wiki page or something to explain the process would be mostly
helpful. Somehow we haven't ever put an effort into doing such a thing,
although over the years we had people asking about it all the time.
Even if there's a simple seed page outlining just an overall requirements, we
can improve on later. I believe it even can be contributed to by newcomers,
bringing new components into the stack.
Thanks
Cos
