mixed signals on "Writing HTML documents", tutorial, etc.

I'm getting mixed signals. The tasks survey
shows 42 people interested in tutorial development,
but I'm struggling to get any tangible progress in that
direction.

I'm sympathetic to arguments like
"I think this mainstream language tutorial
will end up being the most important deliverable of the group because
it will directly affect the people using the language (and will likely
determine how much that use increases)."

But my attempts to follow up on that haven't produced any
tangible tutorial material for review/discussion.

And now when I look at the volunteers to review sections
of the HTML 5 spec, there's noticeable lack of reviewers
for the "Writing HTML documents" documents section.
