Mmm... could we not rather just use 
http://plone.org/products/archetypes/roadmap, which is a bit more 
accessible to people without a deep knowledge of svn (which may in fact 
include capable developers who just don't contribute, or people who are 
just interested in our architecture).

The PSC also gives us some tools to better develop comment on and manage 
proposals in relation to releases - and it gives us some consistency 
with what Plone itself uses.
