Discussion Ask HN: How do technical non-developers help with open source projects? I used to code for a living but decided that I enjoy being a technical writer and PM much, much more.Things I enjoy: * Writing detailed functional specifications. * Creating wireframes & mockups. * Creating flowcharts, BPMN docs & graphs to explain a project. * Planning Poker, Creating sprints. * Discussing technical issues with developers. * Simplifying technical issues for customers. * Learning about new technologies. * Explaining new technology to customers. My question is; Is there a need for someone like me in any open source projects and if so, how do I contribute? 216 points thomk 11 years ago 88 comments
