[tor-project] Community Team monthly report for August 2019

[gus]

Hi,

Here's Community Team report for August 2019.


Documentation
=============

Community Team is responsible to keep the content updated on these
websites: Support portal, Tor Browser manual and Community portal. 

In August we organized all the logistics to a documentation hackathon -
#DocsHackathon - to engage volunteers and update our documentation:
 * Blog post + online registration: <https://blog.torproject.org/join-tors-docshackathon-next-week>
 * Ticket triage:
<https://dip.torproject.org/groups/web/-/issues?scope=all&utf8=%E2%9C%93&state=all&label_name[]=DocsHackathon>
 * DocsHackathon wiki:
  <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/teams/CommunityTeam/DocsHackathon>


Frontdesk
=========

Tickets backlog: from +1000 new tickets in frontdesk queue, we worked to
reduce to ~170 new tickets.


Community Portal work
=====================

Our new shiny portal is taking shape! Some sections are done, others
needs more love (and volunteers). 

Relay operations section is almost done: more pages migration from Trac
and old portal to <https://community.torproject.org/relay/>

If you want to help with content to Onion Services section, get in touch
with us!


Sponsor9 work
=============

In August Pili and Gus worked on a Training Partnership Agreement to
submit to local organizations in countries that we visited during
Sponsor 9 phase 1 and 2. 

We also move forward with our roadmap defined during Stockholm meeting
and started to get in touch with partners from Sponsor9 Phase 1 and
Phase 2.
