Proposal: Adding profile pages to GitHub orgs

[oleg-nenashev]

Hi all, GitHub currently supports adding profile pages to organizations, similarly to what was done for users a while ago (e.g. my profile: http://github.com/oleg-nenashev)

I suggest adding pages to all our GitHub orgs so that we could redirect potential contributors and users to our resources.

• jenkinsci - I created a PoC here: GitHub - jenkinsci/.github: Global configurations for the jenkinsci GitHub organization
• jenkins-infra - needs feedback from @olblak, can be a short summary of Infrastructure
• jenkinsci-cert - needs feedback from @danielbeck, can be a short summary of Jenkins Security
• stapler - I will create a draft after creating a sub-project page as it was planned long ago…

I link this idea very much. If I understand correctly we just have to drop a README.md in GitHub - jenkins-infra/jenkins-infra: Jenkins main control repo for R10k and our Puppet Enterprise managed infrastructure?

[oleg-nenashev]

We would need to drop it in GitHub - jenkins-infra/.github: Global configurations for the Jenkins Infrastructure organization on GitHub , but it is correct otherwise

[olblak]

Thanks, I could easily configure it on a different organization and it would be useful to have a small description of the project there

I like the example that @timja posted at timja-org · GitHub very much. The idea seems really good to me.

Would it make sense to have cross organisation reference such

jenkinsci → jenkins-infra
jenkinsci → jenkinsci-zh
jenkins-infra → jenkinsci
jenkins-infra → jenkinsci-zh
jenkinsci-zh → jenkinsci
jenkinsci-zh → jenkins-infra

Or we could just add a “GitHub Organizations map” somewhere on the Jenkins website. It is already listed on Contribute code to some extent, but we could do more
