This is getting messier than I initially thought it would. I was happy to 
+1 Kanzure and RubenSomsen and Murch would also get my +1 but some of these 
other names seem a touch peculiar to me.

For example I think Jon Atack would make a great Core maintainer at some 
point in the future and I'm not sure a BIP editor should also be a Core 
maintainer given the independence sometimes required between Core and the 
BIP process. Also given Luke is struggling for time I'm not sure making 
Roasbeef a BIP editor makes sense given he is the maintainer of LND, 
maintainer of btcd and CTO of Lightning Labs unless he is winding down some 
of his other responsibilities. This is obviously not a criticism of either 
as they more than qualified to be maintainers of Core and LND/btcd.

GIven the unexpected messiness I'll throw my hat into the ring. I was 
debating whether to initially as I've given a lot of thought to a BIP 
process update (BIP 3), closely followed Luke work through some of the 
frictions and tension points in the past and I disagree it is entirely an 
administrative task although it broadly is.

Thanks
Michael
