The site https://whatcanidoforfedora.org/ is a fun way for people to browse for things they might be interested in. However, it's not really been maintained. There are some technical things, but really the main issue is content. For this to succeed, it should point to active groups where it's easy to plug in, and overall reflect what's really happening in the project.
I can basically see two options here:
A. That's too hard and too much work. Fun idea, but time to retire it. Redirect this URL to a general "Join Fedora" link. (What should that link be, by the way? I feel like https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-join/ is kind of a mix of the activities _of_ the Join SIG and instructions for potential contributors. Maybe that's okay, but it seems a little confusing?)
B. Someone — most likely Join SIG, but maybe all the way up to Mindshare? — takes this on as a regular endeavor, making sure pull requests are handled and proactively updating on a regular basis.
What do you all think?

Oh, also, see conversation here:
https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/status-of-whatcanidoforfedora-org/341...
Hi @mattdm....
Yes, I saw that discussion and point out for my original post a few year ago.
I make some #PR with @cverna and fix it some problem, translation and improve the README to start development in a container.
I'm available to own WCIDFF, if you're interested, contact me.
I think Is a good initiative, a good way to play and find something to do, I think we should continue with it... +1.
1.- some design improvent. 2.- new Logo. 3.- and fixed with the actual ORG chart.... 3.- and new translations in weblate.
Regards.,
fedora-join@lists.fedoraproject.org
