Eek. Two nominations already! I can review, I can edit, I can do QA. I'm quite willing to help out with those.

Too many cooks. That, I think I can handle. Document organization and style rules, yes. > So again: I'm looking for volunteers to be editor-in-chief. I expect > DevMo's editor-in-chief to rule with an iron fist, in a velvet glove. I don't know about the "ruling with an iron fist" part. I can make a manuscript bleed red ink, in good English-teacher/ code-reviewer fasion, but the ruling part seems to involve telling people what to do and when. And in my experience, I'm really very bad with schedules. So if someone wants to guide the management bit and align my pen with the right velocity vector, I'll can take a copyeditor-in-chief slot or whatever.
