Hi Andrew,


Here's my 2 cents:


1. It might be nice if projects had more than one shepherd so there's not a 
single point of failure. Of course, if all members of the maintenance team 
end up joining the team, then there's no issue.


2. Re: "The main project documentation does not have to be hosted inside 
the main Django documentation, but should be under an official Django 
domain if possible, and link back to with the main Django documentation 
where it makes sense."


I'd rather not get into hosting more documentation on djangoproject.org if 
possible, as there's a non-trivial maintenance burden there. I imagine it 
would be easier for the project's maintenance team to make adjustments in 
the readthedocs UI instead of bothering the Django ops team in the event of 
any problems.


3. Did you envision any involvement from the Django Fellow in these 
projects? To date, I haven't really had much involvement with any of the 
ancillary projects like localflavor and formtools.
