but when we look around and call for volunteers to actually help, like we did for the 13.2 release process, or oSC 15, we're very lucky if we get anyone helping at all
That's the point I was trying to inspire a discussion about. I think we need to think very hard and with a very open mind about what this means.
What are the reasons that people don't answer our calls for help?
I think the calls for help are too broad or too loose for people to feel attracted/inclined. Just a hunch. Personally, I see no problem in dedicating a few hours a week to the "13.x release process", but I need a todo-list from which I can pick the top item and then work it for e.g. an hour or so.
Like https://progress.opensuse.org/projects/opensuse-13-2-release ?
Just in case somebody is about to complain that list is not visible enough. https://news.opensuse.org/2014/10/16/opensuse-13-2-time-to-get-your-hands-di... https://news.opensuse.org/2014/09/22/opensuse-13-2-is-coming-first-beta-has-... https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:How_to_participate/Topics (Link in "help us to release next version" https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:13.1/TODO http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-web/2013-11/msg00001.html http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-project/2013-12/msg00402.html I gave up in looking for more links to that list. Of course, anybody offering help in #opensuse-project or #opensuse-factory would be pointed to the list as well. Can it be better? Sure. Is the lack of a list of concrete tasks stopping somebody to contribute? Absolutely not.
