Possible scenario for maintaining 7.3:
Only one or two committers using a two stage cvs... one stage for testing (not including sandbox), one stage for commit.
Scheduled releases based on non-critical fixes. Quarterly? Of course critical fixes should be released as soon as plausible.
Separate mailing list for 7.3 issues, concerns etc... Which would help develop it's own temporary community.
Thoughts?

I see no reason that the maintenance shouldn't be done in the community CVS archive. The problem is where to find the people who want to do it. Of course we have to trust those people enough to give them write access to the community archive, but if they can't be trusted with that, one wonders who's going to trust their work product either.
