It appears to me that Seb/whoever has updated the wording, it seems 
perfectly clear to me currently and meets what people here are still 
talking about - by the use of "suggest" and "might", for example.

Francis - it sounds fine to me, I assume the website will contain a list 
of the tasks posted as and when they are, so you can sign up (if you 
want) to be told about new tasks as and when they're created - with 
obviously no obligation for you to do them if you don't want to! - or 
you can just browse the website whenever you have some spare time.

Let's let the volunteers get on with building any missing functionality! :-)

ATB,
Matthew
