It was I who suggested that a release team would be a good idea. I think
that was soundly rejected. I still think it's a good idea. If only to
ensure that things are properly tagged, the right annoucements go out at
the right times, that a code freeze goes into effect, etc. These concepts
are not new. A release is an important step in the life cycle.
I volunteered to document the release procedure as it resides only within
lore and a couple of heads. I have yet to start.
