I'm not certain what the "this" is that you're disagreeing with.  :)

Ideally so.  In practice, it seems like only "experts" (or at
least, developers and contributors) are doing anything to maintain
it.

I'll note that, if we have any lsr->git importing, it's reasonable
to have some kind of quality control over that process.  In terms
of LSR, this is done by tagging stuff with "docs" and marking a
snippet as "approved".

I wouldn't say "a lot".  If we have appropriate people working on
each step, it's actually a fairly small amount of overhead for
each person, and only involves 5 minutes a week from somebody with
git access.

That sounds like you're agreeing with my main suggestion: dump it
on Phil.  :)
