Jim, I am really glad you wrote this comment. I was going to write a similar E-mail, but thought it would be out of line for me, since I am not involved in the Zope 2 development. If someone would have done that with Zope 3, I would have been pretty annoyed. Thus for Zope 3, if someone creates a release branch without discussing it with me first, then that person automatically becomes the release manager for that release.
