Helping out for 0.6 (was Re: RelaxNG vs DTDs for forrest validation)

And in addition, there's currently 28 unassigned issues in JIRA, 11 of them 
classified as bugs. Could one of you committers please root through these, 
close those that have been fixed, and defer those that can't be reproduced or 
won't be fixed for design reasons? It would be extremely helpful for would-be 
contributors to know just *where* help is needed so you guys can launch 0.6. 

Thanks a lot,
Florian

Sure, we will try. If there are any Issues that you deem important
then please add some investigative comments to them and/or vote for
them.

Of course the documentation is one big area where we need help.
Please create Issues for any documentation that you feel is unclear.
Better still, add some patches for documentation enhancements.

Thanks for your interest and for your offer to contribute.
