Resolve PPC bootloader installation instructions
Handbook probably needs to be migrated from yaboot to GRUB2. See discussion on Handbook_Talk:PPC/Installation/Bootloader.
Finish new Gentoo wallpapers
- Add new wallpapers to www.g.o.
- Work on getting a resize script for common supported display resolutions.
- Consider mobile device resolutions.
- Upload wallpapers sources (with attribution) to Gentoo's GitHub and gitweb.g.o.
- Finish imagemagick resize script for end user reproducability.
- See this tutorial for possible options.
- Pseudo-code from Robin:
$SRC -> parallel(for each $RESOLUTIONS[]: resample, render signet at $POS; save)
Terminology update: Overlay -> ebuild repository
Figure out how to address the following articles (man pages will also need updated):
Layman references:
- PORTDIR_OVERLAY variable.
- layman-overlay-maker command.

Add new recentchanges bot to #gentoo-wiki
Investigate: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/EventStreams
Right now I'm researching mw-bot (source).
Code for a similar recentchanges output:
$wiki $encoded_wiki_page $action $fullurl - User: $username - Summary: $summary
Waiting on a response to issue 62 to add a new wiki to the bot's @recentchanges command.

Close all open discussions in the Handbook namespace
As I continue to clean up our docs in 2017, I am rapidly working to close out all open discussions in the Handbook namespace. Will move this section to Completed tasks when finished.

- GitLab - Clean up article: meld it into proper article layout/formatting according to wiki Guidelines, review for correctness.
- Work on bringing GitLab to Gentoo. This would be of use to infra as a GitHub fall back (since GitHub isn't nicely open source).
- Start with a Gentoo-based container (if necessary), and build from there.
