I was holding off a bit, but those are perfectly in line with my way of
thinking about it.

I had just commented on IRC that:

[17:19] <ewomack|remote> I don't like not having a primary person in charge
of
a section, but I like the idea of any guru jumping into any other section to
fix a problem that a) is small and tested (version bumps) b) is taking way
too
long for the primary to get to.

[17:20] <ewomack|remote> I don't want to see messages of "Hey, I noticed that
KDE was up to 5.0 on freshmeat this morning, so I bumped everything up for
you"

[17:22] <ewomack|remote> I *do* want to see "kbear is up to 8.9 and I've been
using it here for a week so I bumped it up in the grimoire for you".
