What would be good, IMO, is to inject 2 persons in this file : the 
pmc-chair, plus a proxy (someone the pmc-chair trust). If the chair is 
taking 2 weeks out, then we are depending on infra peeps to manage this 
file. Not that you are not responsive, but I believe that each PMC 
should be able to deal with such issues, without asking infra with such 
request.

With LDAP in the picture, that shoul dnot be a problem to manage proxies.

Anyway, this can be discussed later. In the meantime, I will commit 
'suicide' and remove my name from this list ;)
