Hi Mehmet,
I do understand your preference to let people self assign based upon 
their strengths, this is how we did it in the past. The reason why I 
would like to try the other method is that, in Trusty, there were a lot 
of gaps in the columns author and editor next to a chapter or setion in 
the shared spreadsheet [1]. Perhaps this method will work better. Of 
course, if someone does not like his/her chapter, he or she can swap 
with someone else. What do you people think?

You have my vote. Just a thought, would it be a better method to let 
people self assign based upon their strengths, to give you an example, I 
have worked on office productivity for the last three releases and as a 
libreoffice QA Tester for the foundation I think my skills will be best 
utilized within this chapter along with web browsing and email. I 
personally would not mid sticking with what I have worked on for the 
past few releases.

Just for the record, I have experience of managing projects and staff 
for numerous organisations, if there is a way I can utilize these skills 
to assist please let me know.

regards

Mehmet Kani
