That all sounds very nice. >> * Also, a comment policy probably needs probably to be set: ensure that >> what the users submit in there can legally be incorporated as a part of >> the documentation itself...

The problem is that if a user submits something that is going to be committed, he must place it under the license of the project and/or assign the copyright for the contribution to the project, even if the contribution is trivial. Within Python, large contributions require sending a contributor agreement to the PSF, while smaller contributions are usually committed just mentioning the author, who is implicitly assumed to have transferred copyright.
