maintainers

[sparkes]

I think we need to have maintainers for how-to's and some parts of the 
wiki that report to the team leader on those sections of the docs.

This will work in the same way as ubuntu devs work.  Devs have specific 
things they work on but are able to patch and update any section of the 
docs.

The wiki should promote working as a team but if people each take chunks 
of docs as maintainers it spreads the workload a lot more evenly to 
people who can donate time.

Personally I have no problem with anyone editing anything I have 
contributed (or will contribute, I have been very busy the last couple 
of weeks) and I don't think anyone here is that precious that they have 
more than a minor problem with things like that so it should work well.

The maintainer of a doc needn't be the original author of the document, 
we don't want third parties to think they will be stuck with 
maintainance after a doc is contributed, but it should be someone with 
an interest in the contents whereever possible.

I hope this stimulates some interest and allows us to co-ordinate our 
efforts in the future.
