I like this page structure. I see it as more engaging to the people
reading the page too. Given some time to research it, I think this is
something that we could work on in CommOps.

Using the new category (col 3) above, we would break things out by the kind of
contribution. This would serve to let people browse related tasks more easily and to
reduce the overwhelming nature of the current lists.

I've wanted this functionality for a long time but needs dedicated
development time full-time. If not, then an active effort is needed to
create a roadmap with easyfixes rolled in to attract contributors.
In retrospect, all of this sounds like a good GSoC proposal. Not sure if
it's too late to expand on the idea and find a mentor for it.
We should get this moved into an issue in the mentored projects repo.
This needs to be written up and could be either GSoC or Outreachy.
Do you have time to do this?

I'm interested in all the above, but skeptical to whether all pieces are
solvable by CommOps.
Agreed. We probably need two mentors. A "vision" and a "code"
mentor. They could be one person, easier if two.
