I think this is a marvellous idea. Manoj and Branden seem to do
these summaries on an ad-hoc basis, but both are maintainers of large
parts of Debian, and have pressing time constraints.
I'm willing to take on a position to summarize our discussions,
and present them to upstream. I think I can do this diplomatically, and
I have some experience with this. (I was responsible for ironing out
licensing blips in Nessus and tvtime.)
Of course, perhaps the best thing for -legal to do is have
people self-nominate themselves to this position, and then have a small
vote.
