+1 

This should work pretty well for seeking PMC input on specific items without
having to subscribe to the mailing list.

"Code" means everything you check into CVS/SVN or make available as part 
of a download. So images, XML, etc. are subject to IP review.

The easiest way to get PMC approval is to ask on this mailing list.

It occurs to me that this mailing list is relatively difficult to use 
for these purposes. As a general rule, I don't imagine that there are 
many non-PMC folks who really want/need to listen to this list. So... in 
order to communicate with the PMC, you need to subscribe to this list 
for the duration of your communcation. All the while, you have to listen 
to our mindless banter on other topics.

I'm thinking that we might consider adding the Bugzilla mail daemon to 
the PMC mailing list and inviting people to cc the technology-pmc on 
bugs that they want our input on. We could then do the short-term 
communication through the bug (copied on to the list, naturally) and 
then remove ourselves from cc when our input is no longer required.

The architecture council does this currently.

Thoughts?
