Because Shad is very busy, and also because he prefers instant messaging 
and Skype, and I choose not to use those media, it's hard to get his 
attention to discuss development processes via email. I strike while the 
iron is hot.

Development methodology is a project organisation issue.

I don't know how I can debate a technical issue without you considering it 
point scoring. I believe that Shad is risking a root compromise when he 
delegates the process of creating new isos. It's probably a low risk, but 
it is non-zero. I think he thinks otherwise. Trying to discuss it is not 
just a point-scoring exercise. I think we can all agree that security of 
the contribs.org infrastructure does matter.
