+Help Wanted
+===========
+
+These are unassigned specifications: they are approved in concept
+but have yet to attract any volunteers or have lost their volunteers
+prior to completion. They may also be missing specific details like
+a Story link, work items, impact, dependencies... Anyone proposing
+changes implementing one of these is *strongly* encouraged to amend
+the associated spec adding themself as an assignee (and fleshing out
+additional details if necessary) while moving it into the approved
+section of this index.
