I think it’s good to create the release records in the portal to publish 
releases
so that users can find this information for all projects in a uniform way. Also 
PMI
provides some automation which I find useful.

Though the mandatory review period and the small number of review slots (2 per 
month)
Is in the way of fast release cycles.

Maybe we could get rid of the rigid release review process and replace it by a 
more
flexible one based on lazy consensus on a release review mailing list.
E.g.
project publishes release records and IP log on release review mailing list and 
asks for release review
(not on the current fixed bi-weekly schedule, but at any date). If PMC accepts 
the release and
no one else objects on the release review list within e.g. 3 days the review is 
considered successful
and the release can be published.

Probably. However at the moment, I don't think such N&N external documents are 
sustainable enough (in term of URL location and so on) to meet the quality 
criteria of typical Eclipse governance.
