Hmm. Good point. Though, that depends on how likely ConCom are to turn
around and say "well, it doesn't matter that nobody responded, you have to
shut this down now." I think they would be more likely to concede it was
their mistake and not pursue it. But, I don't know. I don't even have that
much experience with them. I certainly don't speak for them.

If you want to get involved, I suggest you subscribe to
concom@apache.organd post a message. (It is a private list, but open
to all committers.)
(Admittedly, their list of mailing lists is also quite confusing...)
