The README seems more focused on task planning and TODO items than
explaining how to use the qa.guix.gnu.org website. Could you please
provide a reference for the latter?

Specifically, I submitted a patch some while ago:
<https://qa.guix.gnu.org/issue/66644>. Its QA status is marked as
unknown with a few items highlighted in red. While the UI helps draw
attention to those items, it's not clear (to me) how to remedy them and
who is responsible for doing what. I.e., what are the next steps? I
would like to get that patch reviewed and merged in some way, but I
don't know what, if anything, I can do to help with the matter.

Is there a document that outlines how to get started and/or
pre-requisites that one must have before reviewing certain aspects?
