I have replied elsewhere that I generally like this and agree with Stuart. 
Now, there are some details to fill in.  Devrel and infra have agreed that 
when responsibilities overlap, neither group would act unilaterally. 
Please see http://dev.gentoo.org/~fmccor/devrel/devrel-infra.txt (esp. 
section II.)  So, unless Mike's intent is to repudiate what I believe we 
agreed to, you would have to read solar's document and the one I just 
referenced together, so the fifth paragraph needs clarification.

As for the proxy comment, as has been noted elsewhere, whenever I or 
anyone else commit something to the tree, it is very hard for anyone 
to tell if I am doing it for someone else or not.  So, say, it might look 
unusual when I make a substantative change rather than an arch change for 
something in dev-ruby, it has happened (at a ruby developer's request). 
(I'm a sparc/devrel developer, not a package developer for those puzzled
by this.)  So I am not sure of the proxy comment's practical effect.

I still think the intent is good and support it.
