In recognition of the direction things are evolving, I'm dubbing Jon
Schleuter one of my official lieutenants, joining Gary Miller and
Chris Kuethe on the list of people with authority to schedule and ship
a release as well as commit patches.
In the past, that release authority has been used by someone other
than me exactly once - Chris Kuethe cut the 2.37 release back in
2008. In the future, I expect this to become more common. While I don't
expect to disappear entirely, there are good general reasons to distribute
authority so the project is less vulnerable to single-point failures.
Accordingly: Jon, you have my encouragement to run the next
release. Use your judgment about when it's ready, or required. Follow
the release procedure in the Hacking Guide; if you think it needs
changing, we'll talk.
