+## wiki gardening
+
+This website is a wiki, so you can edit and improve any page.
+
+Or, write a [[new_tip|tips]] explaining how to accomplish something with
+git-annex.
+
+## bug triage
+
+People often file [[bugs]] on git-annex that are easily resolved by helping
+them with a problem, and perhaps writing some documentation.
+
+Many bugs are also filed without enough information
+to reproduce the problem, and need to be tagged moreinfo and a comment
+posted asking the submitter for details.
+
+Joey spends a lot of time dealing with this kind of bug triage. If you can
+take the time to pick a bug, try to reproduce it and follow up either
+confirming that the problem exists, or asking the submitter for more info,
+you'll make Joey more productive!
