I would be unhappy about moving in this direction. We went to some effort
a while back to convert the Policy Editor role to a delegated role in the
Debian project, and I continue to think that's appropriate given the
importance of Policy to the project as a whole. It provides another level
of review that can focus on the process and health of the team, as opposed
to the TC review, which the constitution focuses on the contents of the
results.
I would prefer to have the Policy Editors continue to be a delegated
position for that reason.
