Comment:

 Bumping this (and with it [https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/146
 #146], I suppose).

 New contributors are confused as to why the docs team doesn't appear in
 the list (this argument could be made for any team, so...), and are
 imputing perceived value.

 Indeed, one could go so far as to say that it may mean that "we" (the docs
 team, or any other team not listed in the drop down) are getting fewer
 folks stumbling upon the docs team as a way to give back than we might
 otherwise.

 Regardless, the current solution is clearly not optimal.

 Not convinced that an all/nothing approach is either, but perhaps it beats
 what's there now. I can see that a complete list may be overwhelming, and
 the new make.wordpress.org homepage may very well suffice as a brief,
 high-level intro to various ways to contribute.
