It seems to me opensuse-doc is also redundant with opensuse-web and
opensuse-wiki, but since no one seems to post about their authorial
work on any of them, I have to wonder where all the tech-writers for
openSUSE.org hangout; in some IRC channel? That would not benefit any
new members of the openSUSE Community who wish to transition to
helping, because non of those conversations are archived; unless I
just don't know where the archive is.

Well, I guess I'll return to trying to understand how the openSUSE
project works after I have read all the archives of openSUSE-doc as I
once set out to do.

Thanks for the discussion,
