We don't have a wiki yet, but it should be easy to get one (and it's
probably the right tool to do something like this).
Would you agree?
Cheers,

Do you guys like the Wiki? like the Spark's:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SPARK/Contributing+to+Spark.
We can create a skeleton, create different pages for different
internal
components, and *gradually* fill it. (It's a history debt that I don't
think some guy can spend just some days to finish it perfectly. Let's
crowdsource it. :-)

Hi everyone,
In the August 2015 incubator report, the 3rd issue to address before
graduation is growing the AsterixDB community.
Since we entered the incubator, at least two members wanted to join
the
community and contribute only to end up disappearing. Getting
acquainted
with the codebase seems like a difficult task for new comers and I
think we
should make it a little bit easier.
I know this is long overdue and someone promised in the ancient past
to
prepare an entry document for new contributor (Who was it?). I am
aware
that we all are busy addressing issues, working on new features,
running
some experiments, writing a paper, etc. but we can still work towards
this
in small steps.
My suggestion is that someone create an outline of how that document
will
be and then publish it in some location where we all have a chance to
contribute (Maybe the AsterixDB website in the documentation
branch?). Once
we have that, whenever somebody spends some time in a new area of the
code,
they should contribute to the document and we should eventually get
there.
Cheers,
Amoudi, Abdullah.
