Something I suggested to Bdale a few months ago was a "release
secretary" to assist the RM. Possible responsibilities:
* Communicating with major open source projects to determine
their expected release timelines. When will gcc 3.2 be
available in beta, and as a release?
* Mapping out those schedules so that the RM (and the project as
a whole) can make informed decisions about the Debian release
schedule.
* Managing and making available (probably via a web site) a
comprehensive list of release goals and the status of each
goal.
* Acting as a filter for release-related requests, to dispatch
them to the proper person.
