[OH-Publicity] Writing a blog post about our transition away from buildout

[Asheesh Laroia]

Hey all,

I think it'd be great if we publish a blog post about our transition away 
from buildout. I think there are lessons for other web apps that want more 
contributors.

I wrote this brief, sketchy outline:

https://etherpad.mozilla.org/get-developing-in-five-minutes

If someone else wants to push it forward, I'd love that. You'll need to 
have a bit of technical background on the available options and how we 
evaluated them, but that can mostly be gleaned from the OH-Dev archives (I 
have references in the blog post draft).

This blog post is written as if it's a summary of the long history of 
these changes. The other thing we could do is just take the OH-Dev posts 
I've written in the past few months, marginally clean them up, and turn 
them into a few separate posts for the blog in a series.

I wonder if y'all have thoughts, or if anyone wants to volunteer to write 
these, either by yourself by contributing to the draft above and asking 
someone else to pick up where you leave off.
