For making this more publicly visible, I want to look into publishing
the cooking reports on the git-scm.com. Maybe we can have a "dev"
section there, that has
* a "getting started" section
  linking to
    Documentation/SubmittingPatches
    How to setup your travis
* "current state of development" section
  e.g. the cooking reports, the
  release calender, description of the workflow
  (which branches do exist and serve which purpose),

Most of the static information is already covered quite
well in Documentation/ so there is definitively overlap,
hence lots of links to the ground truth.

The dynamic information however (release calender,
cooking reports) are not described well enough in
Documentation/ so I think we'd want to focus on these
in that dev section.
