I hear that CF manager is a difficult role for a single individual.
So it makes sense to split that role between multiple people.
I volunteer to be the CF manager for Replication, and also for
Performance. I have an interest in and long experience in each of
those areas, so that makes sense for me. The titles refer to the
categories on the CF application, self-selected by patch authors, not
an increased remit to wade in on anything that appears to fall into
those categories.
Patches need an eventual committer anyway, so this is a reasonable way
of having the process be managed by the eventual committer.
I don't see the role as an authoritarian one, so I will happily pass
over patches to other committers who may wish that and/or call for
help from particular people as required.
