Yes, I think Nova needs to be run by a small group (1-4) of very active
lieutenants (nova-drivers group ?), potentially split along functional
lines, with the PTL having the duties to keep a global view, updated
roadmaps and do release meeting reports. To compensate for that, the PTL
gets the right to make final calls when one needs to be taken (+ a free
TC seat).
