9 times out of 10, I ignore those emails.  If its someone I don't know,
I'll send them over to http://incubator.apache.org/whoweare.html .  I'm not
sure who created that page but I like it.

We rely first and foremost of podling mentors to review releases.  Its much
easier to review a release if the mentors have reviewed and given it a once
over.  We're all volunteers here.  To me its also a good sign of mentor
engagement seeing the mentors review the releases.
