I invite everyone's input (I looked through the items on Bugzilla, but most are too complex for this, to my understanding) on several such small, self-contained projects. Also, what do you think about a weekly mono newsletter? This can be used to gain publicity and also to promote these micro-projects :-) I will be able to do this as well.
