Ok.

This looks like a task/project which we can contribute to?!?!?

I am also new and have done all the registration etc, but now I am having difficulties to find an area where I can work on and which can help the Fedora Project.

I have contacted my country Ambassadors and they have been helpfull, to some extend...

But Karsten, is this an area where maybe Eric (I assume you want??) and myself can support?

Create an area which provides a top-overview of the ongoing projects with a 'status' and for each project a so called "one-pager" which describes what the project is about, how it helps Fedora Project, what the wishfull date is when the project can be finished, their dependencies, which wiki's/groups are involved and who to contact for more information?

Greetings,
Ivo Smuldes

Agreed it needs improvement.  One of the dangers of a Wiki is how
organic growth can quickly become brambles.

The current plan is to bring people in this way:

fp.o/wiki/Join => wiki/ProjectName/Join => ProjectName/Tasks

That is, we go from the high-level to the mid-level.  At the mid-level
(project level), it is up to the individual project to direct people.
There is no real way to make it common across all projects; there are
too many different needs.

The last one, the Tasks page, is something new that we cooked up in
Fedora Docs, and the L10N team has picked it up.  Like the Join pages,
it gives a common structure across all sub-projects to find what you are
looking for.
