+1 to Jeroen's suggestion that we should minimise email traffic.

+1 to Brandon's suggestion of managing in a wiki (although there are other ways which work too)

We should be careful not to "love our list to death" by swamping it with well meaning but little value content, thus reducing the "signal-to-noise ratio". Most modern Codes of Conduct [1] discuss being concise in our communication and considering the readers. If you don't, your community will silently drop off.

I for one have not read any of the nominations on the email list, and I'm probably one of OSGeo Discuss's most active members. There is too much.

Why not just nominate people on the list but collect seconding on online

In previous years it was like this and people still flood with +1. Also,
this year people were sending proposals directly to the list instead of to
the cro.

We are rebels by nature. People will still send things to the list.
Well, they will eventually learn it ;-) ... as soon as a better system
exists than the current "+1" flooding.
