Hi,

> Good question: I nominate Chris.

Well as long as Chris want to take on that role that’s fine :-)

Here’s some links on the process / publishing a release:

Yep.  This is the check list for voting on a release [1], as we’re in 
incubation it’s not expected to be 100% perfect.

Re voting only PPMC votes are binding and you need three +1 votes and more +1 
than -1s. [2] (A -1 votes isn’t a veto.)

Thanks,
Justin
