[RFC] new top-level website nav item "about" #13575
I feel our website lacks a proper resource for folks who don't know what MNE-Python is/does.
I'm thinking about funders, maintainers of other software packages, students wondering if we'd be a good GSoC project, etc. Here are the pages I'd put in there:
Overview (new page)
Governance (currently in "Development" section)
Changelog (currently in "Development" section)
Bibliography (currently an orphan page)
How to cite MNE (currently in "Documentation" section)
Papers citing MNE (currently in "Documentation" section)
Here's some sample draft text for the new "overview" page (the links aren't live, just there to indicate which ones would be links):
mission
The mission of the MNE-Tools organization is to support neuroscience research and its application to clinical and commercial uses. This includes our software tools, but also many forms of user support and education: tutorial resources, a Q&A forum, office hours, workshops, and hackathons.
@drammock sounds reasonable to me! Maybe a good next step would be a (hopefully!) quick draft PR with placeholders to show the new flow / headings? Like you don't have to copy-paste the contents but at least having the headings in place etc. might only take < 30 min to get working to see how it would flow...
i have been working with the documentation structure recently, and I can open a draft PR adding an "About" section with placeholder pages so the navigation and layout can be reviewed
i would be happy to help with this.
Please let me know if there’s a preferred location(doc/about/) or structure to follow
