Gary,

I recommend that you start by politely asking your mentors.

If you, or one of these other projects, don't have enough active
mentors to pass a release vote, I recommend that you recruit more
mentors. One possibility is that one the participants could join the
IPMC; we have voted in people who have demonstrated enough grasp of
the requirements.

I am a pessimist about getting releases reviewed 'in the cloud' of
miscellaneous members of this PMC.
