Defining a release team separate from the project leads
Currently Bug Wranglers can nominate series / milestones, but currently only project leads have the ability to target series/milestones
Bug Wranglers is an open group, but if we defined a Release Team with approved membership, those folks would have the ability to target series/milestones
General positive vibes towards the idea but no defined action item
Sign-off by committers-to-be is very valuable
If contributor X pushes a branch out for review and requests a merge, and contributor Y pushes a branch that signs off on contributor X's commits, that is a strong positive sign in favour of the branch
