Call for volunteers: an early start on 0.23

Brian Fitzpatrick proposed a devious plan, which I'd like to try.
As Batman (?) used to say, "It's so crazy, it just might work..."

Our next three milestones are:

   0.21 [10 April] -- Most issues already assigned, in progress.
   0.22 [24 April] -- Largely assigned, concentrates on diff issues.
   0.23 [8 May] -- A deliberately random grab bag of bite-sized stuff.

Fitz's idea is that each developer pick one issue from 0.23, and start
working on it *right now*, with the goal of having them all closed by
the same date as the 0.22 milestone. If we can knock off 0.23 more or
less for free, by parallelizing, that'll be a big step toward 1.0.
Particularly if we can repeat the trick for the next group of
milestones :-)...

Obviously, "each developer" means "those who have the time". I've
tried to make 0.23 be mostly self-contained issues that won't involve
any lengthy design discussions or major API work (with the exception
of issue #510, which is already assigned to me anyway).

Shall we try it? Just assign an issue to yourself and start on it.
If something comes up and you can't finish, no problem, just assign it
back to `issues' so someone else can have a go.

Many hands make light work (I always thought photons make light work,
but whatever :-) ),
