Thank you. I have a follow-up question. Is the thrift community dependent on just a few individuals with specific duties? It seems so from the responses.
If that is the case, I would highly encourage the thrift developers to try to grow their community by adding new committers and PMC members, who can perform some of these tasks. Nothing should be dependent on a single individual, or a small group of individuals. Release management, including publishing to Maven Central, should be something that any PMC member can perform. And, responding to questions/issues in a timely manner should be something that is the responsibility of any PMC member or committer. If the problem isn't one of limited responsibility, but rather one of limited expertise, then I would recommend adding some stuff to the thrift website that documents how to perform a release, and try to train other community members with that information.
