One thing we could do is to use a section of the wiki (is the export for
distribution controlled by... top-level page, or...?) is to provide some info
about expected availability *when such information is available*.

For example, I know that for the next month that I'll be able to work a tiny
bit on work-related issues and a few minor things that have popped up here
and there as well as continue participating on struts-user. 

If we had a clearing house for that kind of low-granularity info it might be
handy for providing a high-level overview of potential participation metrics.

I don't think anybody here supposes there is an absolute obligation except
for having a vote be meaningful and not just "OH HAI +1 KTHXBYE" lolstruts.

I can only speak for myself, but voting for me do means I'll do my best to
resolve issues as they come up and continue to do what little I can on the
user list. (Albeit a bit testily at times. I'm really quite crabby,
especially when overloaded like I am at the moment :)
