Announce your intent on IRC. It's helpful if someone volunteers to keep a
list of item numbers and the people working on them. They have to pay
attention to IRC. That person responds when someone says "I'm going to work
on 12345" -- "great", or "Bob has that one, please coordinate with him". A
Wiki page may or may not be usable for this (depends on whether it drops
changes on the floor in case of overlapping edits); a Wiki page would
certainly work for this if a single person is in charge of keeping it up to
date.
