Hi Lars,

Well, you know this is a community - right - you see something that 
needs doing, you jump in and do it.

If you a good list of metadata for the site, for project pages lets say, 
or individual pages - put your thoughts up on the wiki and point to it 
with an Email here I would guess.

If folks think it looks good they are going to find a way to let you 
work on it or make the changes, don't you think?

Best Wishes,

Drew
