I'd even start out with something more minimal, in the interest of
incremental forward progress. I think we'd basically need a reference
to:

a) the original source code lives on git.pg.o - sites like github are
just mirrors.
b) commitfest app (and then later docs about it), so people know where
to go to open the equivalent of a pull request
c) link to developer section in the docs, for style etc

does that sound like a reasonable outline?
