It depends who we decide as a project needs to approve events and marketing materials. Typically, the PMC is the body that does this. But we might also want to redefine that and say that the community is able to make those approvals.
If we decide that he community can do this without any direct acknowledgement or approval from the PMC, then the dev@ list or the marketing@ list would be fine. And I am sure a few PMC members would see the thread also. But if we are saying that the PMC itself needs to grant approval, then the PMC as a whole needs to be copied in on the thread. Perhaps that is just a CC to private@ with any formal request like this. We could then ask that someone from the PMC acks the request, or we could just allow lazy consensus to apply, and if nobody objects, then it is approved.
