Any interest? Note: we'd need *2* mentors from CouchDB to help drive this. -Joan

If accepted, we will be allocated either one or two techical writers. Google will also pay the ASF a stipend of $500 per technical writer mentored (which I hope can go directly to fundraising :-) Each project that wants to participate must provide two mentors for each documentation project. As part of the application process there are a few things that we need to setup. 1. Season of Docs Page and List of Project Ideas We need to create a public webpage about Season of Docs that contains the list of project ideas for documentation. I have created a page on the ComDev wiki https://s.apache.org/w4CH with a table for projects to record their ideas. 2. Alternative administrator. I’ve set myself up as the primary admin and Maxim as the alternative admin (Maxim, I need to confirm your contact email and you will also need to register as the alternative admin and I will email you the link offline) 3. Mentors All mentors from the projects interested in participating must register individually at the following link : https://forms.gle/a1x26WQGzURLerv66. 4. Application Form: Documentation / Technnial Writer Collaboration There is a section to fill in about experience with documentation and any previous collaboration with technical writers. I know a few projects have used various tools for documentation - but not sure about any technical writing collaboration (so if you know of any then please let me know) 5. Application Form: GSoC There is a section to complete at our participation in GSoC.I think I have the details from our application this year so can follow up with Maxim or Uli about it This is all I have at the moment and we have until the 23rd April 2019 to finalise all the application details. Ideally I want to have it done well before then :-) Please pass on this information within your various projects and as with GSoC - I'll see how we can get this information out to all our project mailing lists.
