I think the sooner we set on 5.3 release path, the better of we will
be. As a past RM I can tell you that the more new features exist in a
release, the more challenging the release process is. If a faster
release cycle means having 2 RMs, then we have 2 RMs, thats my opinion
anyhow.

Aloha,
Since Johannes has been stumped (and therefore not as visible as he
would have hoped) with work and 5.3 CVS is already filled brim with
awesome new features, I have been approached by several people
wondering how we can speed up the process. I have always said I am
available to play the secretary to the RM, but in order to ensure
that developers have a greater chance of having an RM to talk to,
Johannes agreed to move me to co-RM status.
I hope we do not have to have a fundamental discussion about the
merits of 2 RMs. Having 2 RMs should hopefully help speed up the 5.3
release cycle. Of course it will be the job of the two RMs to ensure
that we are sufficiently in sync with each other. But I guess we are
hopeful that adding an RM is not made unfeasible by this additional
communication between the RMs.
