So I would like to propose that Openstack allow sub-projects to release as necessary, rather than in lock step.  An Openstack release then would be a collection of sub-project releases that are tested together at that time.  So for example, for swift, the Cactus release may end up being something like swift 1.3.5 rather than 1.3.  I also see this becoming more of an issue as external projects are brought into the fold.

If I remember correctly, we previously discussed each project can do independent releases - and openstack as a project periodically syncs up and says OpenStack Elephant is Swift 1.5.2, Nova 1.2.1, Glance 1.1.3, ...

Currently, the only requirement is that the PTL has a commit to the code base.  I don't foresee this being an issue in this election, but could see it being an issue down the road.

I'd like to propose that in addition PTL elections should include a platform (paragraph or so) to share with the community for their time as PTL.
