editors: Thread: Assignments for editing?

Hi folks,

I re-read the Reviewer HOWTO which indicated a number of ways to get started, 
but to date I have not yet picked up a document to edit.  One of the ways 
indicated was to have something assigned.

Many of the documents at db.linuxdoc.org have notes but are still in status 
unreviewed, even though in some cases the comments are old as well.

Rather than step on toes, I thought maybe it would be better to have 
something assigned to me for editing, and then I could get started without 
overlapping someone else's work.

I had considered offering help on the BASH Programming - Introduction HOWTO, 
but I can see some notes there, even though the document is unreviewed.  
Looks like there was someone who volunteered to maintain the document but no 
new information since Nov 2001.  I was unsure how to proceed, if it was okay 
to email the author or make sure no one else was already working on this.

No need for duplication of effort!

If you can recommend a better way to get started, I'd appreciate that too!
