Introduction

On january 17th 2019, as a fresh newcomer in the group, I (Cyrille) proposed to try and improve the Debian Perl Group's websites (ie: wiki and homepage) to the mailing-list (see https://lists.debian.org/debian-perl/2019/01/msg00026.html).

The feedback was quite positive and some discussion started on the mailing list.

Since it's hard to keep track of all the opinions and decisions taken within the mailing list, I've created this page to try and keep these centralised and easily accessible.

= Main goals =

Improve documentation (organisation, content, presentation,...) to:

1) Better support newcomers who make their first contribution, co-maintaining packages with the Debian Perl Group (DPG). 2) Allow existing maintainer to easily find relevant informations for their day-to-day activities.

= Main issues identified =

1) This wiki and the DPG's [https://perl-team.pages.debian.net/|homepage] have somewhat redundant and conflicting informations; 2) Some information displayed on this wiki and the DPG's homepage is in fact maintained as POD docs in DPG's tooling (e.g. pkg-perl-tools). As a result, these informations on this wiki and the homepage may be obsolete
