My plan of interaction is as follows: [snip] Won't work. First it would introduce a single point of failure. If we'd really follow this route there has to be a role for this, not a user. Then how are people supposed to know about this in teh first place? I wouldn't expect that users with a question/topic for -dev have read the dev handbook. Often that is spontaneous, which brings me to my next point: email definitely won't work for this, I mean if someone writes an email they can just as well ask their question on the gentoo-dev list directly. And finally: I really don't like the idea of telling people "ask Chris for voice, other devs might not behave nice", if there really is a problem this will just sidestep it, not solve it.
