[gallery] Component contribution volunteers

[Note: Although this will end up in an public archived mailing list, at 
this stage we are unable to take submissions from the general public. A 
public call for contribution is sent out at a later stage.]



Hi Anna Belle, Howard and Andrew, volunteers for the Components Gallery 
(or whatever the name will be in the end).

It is good to have you three on board to get this going. First things 
first: I have created a rough document on the submission requirements 
for the gallery. Your feedback is very welcome.

https://github.com/w3c/wai-components-gallery/wiki/Submission-criteria

You should already be able to login to the tool using your W3C account 
here:

https://www.w3.org/blog/wai-components-gallery/wp-admin/

You should find Frameworks, Templates and Widgets as content types (top 
level menu items) on the left. Tags, Vendors and Licenses are taxonomies 
and shared between the three content types.

So if you want to submit a new widget, for example, navigate to the new 
widget page (”Widgets -> Add New”) and fill out the form. Feel free 
to try it out with dummy content if you like.

If you come across a vendor or license that is not currently in the 
list(s), feel free to add them by hovering over the top-right corner of 
the sections with your mouse. A faint (+) button appears. Click it and 
you get an input field where you can specify a name. [I will make this 
properly accessible ASAP.]

It should be pretty straight forward. If you have any questions, feel 
free to write me a mail and if needed we can specify a phone meeting 
early next week.

Todo:

* **Familiarize yourself with the Wordpress instance**, please report if 
you can’t see something (best with screenshot) or if you have other 
issues. The best place is Github, I think: 
https://github.com/w3c/wai-components-gallery/issues/new?title=[wp]

* **Have a look at the “submission criteria”** and feel free to send 
in suggestions for this as well. This will be continuously updated while 
we collect data for the tool, as we will get a better feeling on what we 
need to specify while collecting the data.

I hope this helps as a first information package.

Best,
Eric
