Re: Call for WebGPU / WGSL spec editors

I want to nominate myself as an editor for the WGSL specification. While
approaching 1.0 and beyond, I would like to provide improvements and
continuing maintenance (including the infrastructure for previews and
checks). I am familiar with the spec workflow and tooling (not only
WGSL-isolated but also ones that need text change in WebGPU spec, such as
Unicode), as demonstrable by the number of lines and the number of commits
as a contributor.

Thank you,
Oguz (Mehmet Oguz Derin)
