Again, look at this from the PoV of a truly volunteer contributor... If he/she needs to constantly watch the list to make sure that they are able to vote on a release, it becomes a job, a task, rather than fun. How "welcoming" would a project be for you to join, for fun, if it *required* you keep track of it as if it was your job? In addition to nurturing the present community, you also need to nurture the future community.
