There seems to be general agreement that we could use someone filling this role. Are there any objections?
Assuming no, are there an nominations or volunteers for someone to take the role?
Forgot to mention that I'm willing to take this role on for the next couple releases. As for my qualifications: I've been doing a number of the coordination responsibilities already I'm involved in both the Node (as maintainer) and Infra (as a contributor) projects. I've been pretty visible to the community already through both upstream IRC and meetings and the oVirt Workshops.

Given some of the difficulties we've had recently with planning and getting releases pulled together, I'd like to propose we have a new role in the Project.
Project Manager
Responsibilities:
Maintain Schedule Run weekly meeting Coordinate with project maintainers on dates, features, etc Ensure that docs and release materials are ready for release Final say on what goes into a release Tracking new features Tracking action items
This person should be empowered to make decisions for the project (based on input from maintainers, but final call is theirs).
As for choosing this person, it could be done via general election on email or an IRC meeting. I'd suggest having someone do it for a limited timeline, maybe 2 or 3 releases, max, then someone else takes over.
One slight tweak to the above: The existing person can continue in the role if re-elected and there are no term limits.
Any thoughts, suggestions, comments?
Thanks
Mike
