Done! Thank you ❤️
I think this is covered in https://contribute.cncf.io/contributors/getting-started/#non-code-contributors
The existing block is minimal. Shoring that up with significantly more content and detail is the purpose of this particular issue.
Some notes:
As a CNCF contributor who has primarily worked in the non-code space, I'd like to chip in.
Thanks @divya-mohan0209, your input would be great.
In Knative community, we're setting up an initiative to work with designers. The outcome would be:
While this will take a while, we would be happy to share our findings with the wider CNCF community.

Although, I'm not heavily involved with the SIG Contribex team in Kubernetes, they have folks who contribute in ways other than code. Contributing to docs is also considered to fall under the scope of non-code, in general. However, since there is a fair amount of frontend framework knowledge required for the actual maintenance of docs, I'll only list the named roles that require a preliminary knowledge of GitHub and Markdown.
SIG Release within Kubernetes also has a Release Team subproject that deals with actual co-ordination bw various stakeholders during a release and is another fantastic avenue for non-code contributions.
Tl;Dr: The roles I mentioned above could be broadly categorised into the below buckets:
I have added this Issue to the Contributor Growth Meeting agenda for discussion. @divya-mohan0209 @qedrakmar you have both shown interest in this topic. Please join us.
For those watching this issue: A Doodle Poll is currently open, for meetings starting in the next couple weeks to discuss this as a project. https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/eVQwo2Xd
For everyone watching this, the poll has concluded, and meetings will be held on Tuesdays at 8am Pacific Time. Please tune in to the #tag-contributor-strategy channel on CNCF slack and/or the #sig-contribex channel on K8s slack for further details. We're hoping to start discussions next week, if possible.
Creating a non-code label here: https://github.com/cncf/tag-contributor-strategy/pull/553
Since we want to advocate for acknowledge non-code roles in the project, we should have a guide that discusses the value of the roles, types, and how to ensure they are on equal footing with other roles.
