This has been a long time coming, but the time has come for me to admit
that I don't have time anymore to actively develop new releases and
regularly manage/test/punt stable releases.

Fortunately, there's a solution to this. I've spoken with Simon Lees (aka
Simotek), and he's agreed to help with the maintenance of stable releases
for an amount of time beginning with the 20.8 release. Simon has been a
member of the community for a long time now, and he is also managing
EFL/Enlightenment releases for openSUSE--arguably the distro on which we
are best-supported.

I'm not involved with infrastructure at all, but it seems to me that
there's two ways this can work:
* He gets commit access, direct ssh access to the download server, and
posting/moderation access to the release list
* I continue to handle these things as a proxy for him

My preference is the former option in order to reduce the amount of time
that I need to spend overseeing someone who is clearly competent and
responsible enough to handle these things on his own.

The 20.8 release is likely to go out sometime next week, and I'd like to
try and get this resolved before then so that the process can go smoothly.

Thoughts?
