Jesse, I had read it and I think it's a good RFP. Kudos to all involved. My point was to address Steve's request for "any one person in the dev community". It seemed to me that the release managers are one of the most important content producers today on the web site so perhaps one of them should be considered as that representative. But perhaps I misunderstand what Steve was suggesting.
I took the point to be having someone involved that can raise a red flag if something starts looking like a problem from the dev side and suggest things like "we should ask for the RMs feedback on this particular aspect". No need to have a large group involved every step of the way, but worth having a sufficiently broad range of viewpoints that most potential issues can be identified early before they have a chance to become real problems.
Cheers, Nick.
