this is my self-nomination for being the next release manager, if i can get someone to be my assistant (or vice-versa).
I'll volunteer for that, on the understanding that we're not going to do another proper release until mid 2011.
As an almost-half-release manager, I'd like to propose that in between releases, whenever there's a significant user-visible change, we prepare an alpha release on hackage, so that we can advertise it and get some testers. Whether this is done by just releasing the current state of head or backporting the changes to the last stable will depend on: -maintainer motivation -feasability for that feature -date within the release cycle -phase of the moon -how the previous (if any) feature-alpha was made. Hopefully, this gets us even closer to release-early, realease-often, and makes it less frustrating to contribute features, especially if they end up being released in the second next version of darcs.
