In order to plan ahead for the work that we need to do to make MDN better for everyone, we spec out large-scale projects that need to be done in advance. This includes both content projects and development projects.

A content project is any project primarily centered around the writing community. This includes cleaning up of landing pages, writing large-scale new documentation sets (such as documenting a whole new API), and so forth.

A development project is primarily handled by the development team or development volunteers. These projects are things like implementing large-scale new features or broad changes to the site's function or appearance. Some examples might be things like redesigning the editor interface or adding a new dashboard.

Content Projects
