Requirements		Strictly speaking, this is not a technical feature; however, like technical features, this would require developer time in exchange for enhancing our capabilities to implement and (commercially) support technical features, so I am including it here. A separate, non-community-maintained, website for formal user and developer documentation (Precedents: Fedora/Red Hat, Ubuntu), posted in a publicly viewable but edit-protected place. (i.e. not publicwiki as it now stands.) On this site, a canonical list of all the technical subcomponents that make up the OLPC system that the organization supports. For each subcomponent, a howto/code-tour for the kind of developers we want to have working on that portion of the project. Note that this could be "Code is available for download, but community development is not officially supported by the OLPC organization," and a link to the all-community wiki (or appropriate pages as on SugarLabs). Intended audience: developers with code experience but no OLPC-specific project background Put a link in the library on the XO which links to GIT or other relevant source. (added by Gnu)
Specification		If this were implemented mainly by developers, it would be a large task for the developer responsible for each subcomponent to take responsibility for creating this section. So instead, I would suggest putting the load on a single editor who would be in charge of talking with developers, asking them questions, and formatting their (objective: minimize the workload on developers as much as possible). I could see this being half-time contract work, maybe for 2-3 months during 9.1 development, to create and release a first version of a "developers' center" with an infrastructure that can be easily updated for future releases.
