I thought we considered Bruce being the only person who could edit the TODO
list more of a bug than a feature. Consider how many times we've had to play
broken-telephone trying to explain what the key aspects to express in the
items were. It would be simpler to agree that there's a TODO and then have the
person who knows what the item is write it or fix Bruce's attempt than to have
to go through one person who wasn't necessarily involved in the discussion.

That's not to say we don't need designated maintainers to own specific pages.
But that's more of a positive assertion that if nobody else is doing something
they're responsible for getting it done rather than a negative assertion that
nobody else should be helping.
