Some minor proposed changes to this section as follows:
The collaboration is based on git and emails. Incoming patches are listed in
patchwork. Bugs are opened in bugzilla. The Technical Board may intermediate
in the development process, as described in the Technical Board operation.
> The main project has specific informations for contributors.
> Other projects have their own documentation.
The singular "information" would be better here.
Otherwise +1.

> It is supposed to be a welcome page for contributors of any DPDK project,

> DPDK is an open source project, with the main code BSD licensed and Linux
> kernel related parts are naturally licensed under the GPL. We welcome and
> encourage anyone who is interested to contribute and participate in the
> project.
> "
> The second part of the introduction requires some changes:

> The collaboration is based on git and emails. Coming patches are listed in

> The link on "git" must be changed to http://git.dpdk.org so that it covers

> The link on "emails" must be to the following section listing all mailing-
> lists.
> The link on "patchwork" must cover any possible new project:
> https://patches.dpdk.org The sentence about the roadmap is removed because
> specific to Core.
> The link on "bugzilla" must cover all projects: https://bugs.dpdk.org
>
> We should add a sentence to link to the "Contribute" page of the Core
> project:
> "
> The main project has specific informations for contributors.
> Other projects have their own documentation.

> with "informations for contributors" being a link to
> https://core.dpdk.org/contribute and "documentation" being a link to

>
> The next section "Get the Code" can be replaced by a list of links to

> - Code - code.dpdk.org
> - Repositories - git.dpdk.org
> - Patches - patches.dpdk.org
> - Email archives - inbox.dpdk.org
> - Bugs - bugs.dpdk.org
>
> The section "Mailing Lists" should stay as is.
>
> The section "Ways to Contribute" is an old copy of the Core project, so it
> should be completely removed from this general page.
