Great.  Let's do that then.  Having it on openlibrary.org will make it easy
for users to find.

As understand it, the goal is to have a place where members of the OL
community can self-organize ways to contribute, data entry standards, data
cleanup tasks and all the other meta stuff that will go into making Open
Library a success.

What is a good root page for this piece of the wiki and where should we
link it into the rest of the structure?
