However when you write "Authors are responsible for creating documentation and maintaining the documentation they write.", is this meaning that no other writer than the doc's original writer is allowed to maintain it ? If so this is raising a thorny problem, even more when you think authoring is build upon volunteering.

Mathieu,
I chose the phrase "creating and maintaining" because I am under the
impression that TLDP encourages authors to keep their documents up to
date. It is certainly possible to have a "document maintainer"
position, but I did not see evidence of it on the current volunteer
list [http://www.tldp.org/vlist.html] which is what I am working from
at this point.
