Jean-Baptiste/José,

Thank you much for helping to smooth the on ramps for contributing on
translation/docs :)

Whenever you folks do decide on a process, we'd love to help
socialize/promote it on the CommBlog
(http://communityblog.fedoraproject.org)

Keep up the good work, and let us folks in CommOps know when it's time
to help feature the new process.

P.S. - FYI, There is a Docs FAD coming up soon
(https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FAD_Documentation_2016). We also have
an incoming GSoC intern working on Docs (c0mrad3) starting at the end
of April, so this information will be useful for onboarding our new
contributors too. And, finally, We also recently added zanata to
fedmsg: https://fedora-fedmsg.readthedocs.org/en/latest/topics.html#zanata
:)
