Tried.
Are you kidding? Sign me up as a volunteer polyglot programmer, then!
Although, my own eagerness to help makes me think that the problem might not be that you tried to ask for volunteers and didn't get any, but rather that you tried to work with volunteers and something else didn't work out.
The site is open source, you should be able to just write a patch and submit it.
This would be a poor investment of time without first getting a commitment from Eliezer that he will accept said patch.
After finding the source and the issue list, I found instructions which indicate that there is, after all, non-zero engineering resources for lesswrong development. Specifically, somebody is sorting the incoming issues into "issues for which contributions are welcome" versus "issues which we want to fix ourselves".
The path to becoming a volunteer contributor is now very clear.
Getting someone to sort a list, even on an ongoing basis, is not functionally useful if there's nobody to take action on the sorted list.
It'd get you familiar with the code base, which you'd need to be anyway if you wanted to be a volunteer contributor.
