I would say that the mailing list has authority over content;
the maintainers have authority over the packaging details (releasing
packages, closing bugs, etc).
Unless there are objections to this, I shall close the [Fixed
in NMU] bugs this weekend.
As to the bugs that require content changes, the list has
authority, and someone should take initiative and create a proposal
that contains the changed text.
I would do this myself, but I have been too involved in
dealing with the adminstrivia related to this, and I would rather
someone else took the lead in this to mitigate against any perception
that the policy maintainers are in fact policy czars.
Surely there are people on the policy list interested i
getting the bugs closed etc?
