I agree with Matthew. We should try to reuse existing tags as much as
possible. I also think that we should take a look at Harvest [1].
Harvest was designed to make it easier to find low hanging fruit. By
using the same tags that are used in the rest of the community, we
could easily add our tasks to Harvest. Another great feature of
Harvest is that you can have it only show tasks for a certain set of
packages. This means that by going to [2], we could get a nice list of
tasks that affect documentation. If this is something that we are
interested in trying, I would be glad to work on making it happen.
