Chris reports progress to the AxKit PMC at the (newly instituted) bi-weekly dev meetings.
When the items on Chris' RP are knocked down and released, the process starts over.
This seems like the Pumpking is also going to be the main developer on the release.
Not necessarily, and there's nothing in or about the RM's mandate that makes it so. I only presented it from that angle because I couldn't imagine submitting a release plan that I wasn't also prepared to implement in full myself if that's what it took to see it though to the end.
In any case, the Pumpking is answerable to the PMC and is expected show forward progress at the bi-weekly dev. meetings so there's already a poker's poker in place.
That said, if it truly looks like the RM will be forced to do too much, then, realistically, no one will volunteer (and that would be a bad thing). Did you have other ideas about spreading the responsibility around?
