The BIP repository situation has been an on-going source of frustration 
for an extended period of time, leading e.g. to Kalle being added as an 
additional editor three years ago, and AJ created the BINANA repository 
almost three months ago. Hence, I am not in a particular rush or 
invested in the timeline of my casual proposal. My main goal was to 
restart progress on the topic. However, I would prefer if objections 
were accompanied by a concrete actionable alternatives as we will 
otherwise just get bogged down again.

Given the concerns with the timeline, I propose that we extend the 
timebox by another two weeks to solicit comments on editor candidates 
until the 19th of April and aim to add more editors around the 22nd. 
These dates would put the end of the comment period well after the Core 
Dev meeting. If you have other concrete reasons why this timeline is 
unreasonable, please state your reasons _and provide an alternative 
proposal.

I agree though, that the discussion of adding additional editors and the 
discussion of changing the process are two separate topics and should 
not be intermingled.

Best,

Murch

So it'll need to be next week at the earliest, but I don't see a problem with closer to May if that's important to some.
