Alright. I will make a note of this and amend the next version. 

I was wondering whether any maintainers who will be impacted by this and the 
Release Manager (current and past) have a view

Also, please let me know of any additional feedback on the main proposal, such 
that I can make a note of people's views and make modifications.

Best Regards
Lars
