I think the main issue with Twitter is that there can be only one set of
credentials. AFAIK, we can't have a project account to which various people
have permission to post without sharing a username/password. Other than
that, I would have nothing against a project Twitter account, though I'm
not sure I would find occasion to post to it except at release time. I do
see other Apache projects with a PMC-wide twitter, so it should be doable...

Are you familiar with any way to share a Twitter account without having to
share credentials?

I'll move ahead with creating the lists and see how things go.

We should poke the other members of the PMC (as well as any non-PMC
committers) to subscribe if not already subscribed. I can manually check to
see who's missing.
