Some updates, such as those in your list, are probably well within
the capabilities of developers, and in that case I agree it would be
better for them to submit PRs instead of issues. Whatever you can
do to motivate, encourage, and train them to do that would be
helpful.
As long as we're still allowed to file issues for updates of greater
complexity, I think we're ok.
Thanks!

Hi Bill,
thanks for raising the question!
You are correct overall vision and design of the jakarta.ee
will be done mainly by people in the Eclipse Foundation and with
input from the community. What was being asked is to for
example if we want to add additional documents to https://jakarta.ee/committees/specification/
page to create a pull request instead of an issue. Another
example is publishing of the meeting minutes for various
meetings. Once the PR is created it will be reviewed by our
web-dev team to ensure it is done as expected before it get
merged.
Issues are still welcome, but take more time to address, so for
fast turn around PRs are preferable.
Hope this helps!
Best,
Tanja

I'm not aware of recent discussions around this site so maybe
I'm missing some important background.
So, basically, we all need to be web designers for this site.
There's no one at Eclipse who can take a request for
improvements to the site and design and implement the
improvements. Is there at least someone with an overall vision
for the site who can provide feedback on the PRs so ensure that
the site retains some sort of consistency?
Note that the page you refer to below still suggests that we
should open new issues.
Maybe the other teams are in better shape, but I'm not sure we
have anyone on the Oracle team with significant web design
experience who could maintain this site. If you've seen most of
our GitHub Pages, they leave something to be desired. That's
the sort of updates you would be likely to get from us for this
site. Fortunately, I know that some of the other teams have
members with more web design experience, so hopefully they'll be
able to fill this gap.

Hello all,
per recent discussions regarding the need to continuously
add / change jakarta.ee website, we have have received a
request from our web development team to always submit
Pull Requests instead of issues.
As most people are developers on our committees I am sure
this is not going to be too much of a problem. How to Get
Started and contribute is documented on the
https://github.com/jakartaee/jakarta.ee
If any questions or need for a
short training session on this, please let me know.
Many thanks for your contributions!
Best,
Tanja
