I think this would be an excellent position for someone to have.  And, I
think that whoever takes the position should decide two things soon:
1. A calendar for 1.0.x releases.  Once a month - 2 months seems about
right to me.  
2. A more detailed set of criteria for what checkins are allowed on the
branch.  Personally, I think that after 1.0.2, no checkins should be
allowed on the branch without branch maintainer's approval.  This will
ensure the continued stability of the branch.   
And we already have a volunteer.  Yay!
