I don't think Walters use of "others" is intended to pass the buck. @Walter, I'm assuming that your intent was to better understand the process and scope of "how do I make a change in the ASF"?
I think we agree this is a big task, regardless of avenue. My intent was mostly to gauge/rally interest in a direction that is likely to gain the most support and volunteers. If option 3 is your choice, then I suppose the next step is working with members of ASF to determine specific scope of work? It's probably worth identifying blockers up front and evaluating those before starting to apply elbow grease.
