I think we can move on. But it would be good to have a go at finding
new maintainers/default assignees when the 30 days comes up together I
think. How that happens is the only question. Should we post the list
to somewhere so anyone interested in taking on the work can go make
themselves the default assignee? Which mailing list/wiki does the list
go to?

Incidentally it would be good to do the same thing re module
coordinators. The list is already on the wiki. What's the best way
forward, blog about the need and ask people to add themselves to the
wiki page to step up? Some mailing list post? Both?

BR,
Jeremy
