If the items are on dev/dist the vote can happen. Once approved a pmc member can move them from there.

I believe that I (or another PMC member) can also perform the move to release. It sounds like once I get the KEYS sorted, we're ready for a vote. As for the perms on the dist directories, it sounds like we may have some things to sort out before the next committer (and not PMC member) can do a release, and we may need to update the docs.
