I can only speak for myself, but in my experience, instead of offering
to do something, you should just do it. Yes, you risk doing something
that might not be received well in the end, or you have to do it just to
get people's attention to talk to you about how to do it right, and you
then have to do it again. Maybe not perfect, but still worthwhile in my
opinion. I guess there have been just much more discussions lacking
results than results lacking prior discussion.
