what if we make the main contact point part of the current release
manager's duties ?  e.g. Adhemerval Zanella is managing glibc 2.23,
so he would be the contact, but as soon as the manager is picked for
the 2.24 cycle, it'll pass on to that dev ?  i suspect it won't add
anything for the most part, and most people wouldn't see any at all.
