GNOME Help & Documentation Are In Need Of Help


The GNOME Release Team is issuing a call for help as GNOME Help and the associated GNOME documentation are much in need of some assistance.

The poorly maintained GNOME Yelp recently seen a significant security issue, still is relying on GTK3 while the rest of the GNOME desktop has moved onto GTK4, hasn't yet landed a conversion to the Meson build system, and simply put is suffering from bit-rot without any really active maintainership. The GNOME documentation is also struggling as it's written in the niche Mallard format that relies on its own tooling and is not actively maintained. The GNOME Release Team is thus hoping some in the community would be interested in working on the Yelp help viewer as well as improving GNOME's documentation.
