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

That's right, this is because the website is still hosted in SVN. As I 
understand, there is a desire to move it to Git and that would make things 
simpler for contributors. If you are interested in helping out, I suggest you 
send an email to development mailing list proposing this so that we get a wider 
audience.

One of the questions is whether the website should be part of the same Git 
repository as the code or a different one. There are pros and cons for each 
approach. Maybe you can also discuss this aspect in your email message.

> Improve documentation for contributing to docs

> 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.
