Thanks for registering it as a bug. I looked into it. Attached in the result I 
get from 'make status' for the Quick Guide before making any src changes. Is 
it the same as yours? 

If so then the problem is that there is no @status on these elements. The 
problem is not the script. Authors need to add the status attribute. See 
http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/DocteamWork - "Marking what you do" I did 
send message to the list on this.

 I have now done @status for the rest of the quick guide and made commit. So 
if you run run 'make status' again it will should you something different. 
There is one validity error, my mistake will fix. Not all sections have a 
authorblurb because they don't have an author.

Here is the logic:
<xsl:template name="doItems">
        <xsl:for-each 
select="//chapter|//sect1|//sect2|//sect3|//sect4|//sect5">
            <row>
                <entry>
                    <xsl:value-of select="title"/>
                </entry>
                <entry>
                    <xsl:choose>
                        <xsl:when test="@status='help'">
                            <para>
                                <emphasis role="bold">
                                    <xsl:text>Help Wanted</xsl:text>
                                </emphasis>
                            </para>
                            <xsl:call-template name="doAuthor"/>
                        </xsl:when>
                        <xsl:when test="@status='writing'">
                            <para>
                                <xsl:text>In Progress</xsl:text>
                                <xsl:call-template name="doAuthor"/>
                            </para>
                        </xsl:when>
                        <xsl:when test="@status='review'">

                                    <xsl:text>Awaiting Review</xsl:text>
                                </emphasis>
                            </para>
                            <xsl:call-template name="doAuthor"/>

                            <para>

                </entry>
            </row>
        </xsl:for-each>
