Ok, cool.

Maybe we could follow this guide:
1. Assign a page to yourself in the content table in
http://live.gnome.org/GnomeWeb/TwoPointTwentyseven/Content (rename
'Author' column to 'Assigned to' or something)
2. When you're 'done' with the first draft:
  2.1 Update the same content table with a link to the page ('Draft
Available' column);
  2.2 Send an email to gnome-web-list about it
