------------------------------------------------------------------
We've been talking for a while about the need to work on dividing up the documentation and docs issues into topic areas that people can focus on more easily.
Before Christmas I went through and tagged most of the issues in the queue (where appropriate) with any topics that seemed to come up repeatedly. It would be fantastic if people could self-organize around these tags a bit - following that tag in the queue and working on/reviewing issues - momentum getting stuff done speeds up incredibly when there's even a couple people tag-teaming!
If anyone wants to work on a topic area sub-group, please add your name below so everyone knows who's working on what, in the format: Name | Username (linked) | IRC nick
I've linked to the filtered versions of the queue for each tag. Hope this helps anyone who's been wanting to help out find a place to start!
