Dunno about that. While a CF manager doesn't necessarily have to have a commit bit, I think he/she probably does have to be someone who is known and respected on the -hackers list. Otherwise, nagging to finish patches is likely to be ignored or even counterproductive.
I realize now that I caught JDs response slightly out of context. I thought we were talking issue/bugtracker, in which case I think that is needed just as much as it is for a CF manager. As it's basically the same thing just at a different stage.
But that one seems to be more about keeping the todo list on the wiki up to date, in which case I agree, not as much is needed. Because it's more reflecting what's happened, rather than trying to manage process.
