ryan as contributed plugins czar

Ryan has offered to take on the role as the Contributed Plugins Czar and 
maintain the contributed plugins side of PyBlosxom.

I think of the contributed plugins as a vital separate but intrinsically 
related subproject of PyBlosxom.  As Ryan mentioned a few emails back 
(possibly on the users list--I forget), the plugins provide a lot of 
functionality and we really need to be paying a lot more attention to them 
and the plugin ecology.

I see the responsibilities of the Contributed Plugins Czar loosely as 
these:

  - the czar will maintain of anything in */contrib in the repository

  - the czar will be the first point of contact for patches, bugs,
    feature requests, documentation, releases, ... for those plugins

There are probably some other things--we'll figure them out as we go 
along.

Ryan has been a huge help over the last few months in terms of fixing 
documentation, plugins, and PyBlosxom core and helping out.  He's got a 
series of things he's interested in fixing and I think his participation 
would be a huge boon to PyBlosxom development and he'd be a good addition 
to the team.

I wanted to run this by all of you to see if there were any issues or 
things I hadn't thought of.

Does anyone think this is a bad idea?
