[documentation] Proposal to open up editing rights

[Wolf Zirbs]

In consideration that we all have responsability to provide exact and easy
documentation it should also take care of a standard of quality and security
on who is going to cooperate.
My proposal for a selection of who have "Fully edit access"  and who not
have does not limit the joining to the documentation team, but give the
"Documentation Team" the chance to build an effective cooperating group.

We all know that there are 100 and more People who are happy to collaborate
and furnish good documentation
but IMHO I see as a priority task also to supply to Drupal.org Handooks a
higher standard of usability of the contained information.

We all know that a basic control is the base of good organizative
management. I care about this even I care to
grant access to every one who want help out in document and report in
Handbook.

Drupal as grown in an impressionable manner functionality and also this give
to anyone more handling power
but we should take care also who is using this powerfull tools and
functions.

Better have Applyer that have a period of practice and then approved to a
more powerfull contribution level as have 1000 that just register ones and
later on do not collaborate actively.

This could also be a grater motivation for every one to get to be part of
this great Community.
