I think it'd be important to keep the barrier very low. It should be possible 
to start competing or crazy projects. So this approval from a Maintainer 
shouldn't usually require a lot of discussion, and it shouldn't be necessary 
for someone to object to creating playground projects. But I agree it'd be good 
to have an opportunity to see the initial discussion.

How do others see this?

The Gerrit Expert Group mailing list was intended to work as an archive. It 
doesn't exist yet. 

Sergio, I guess you'll be on that list anyway, so we could simplify this to 
just sending the emal to the list and to the approving maintainer?

Cheers,
Henry
