I've had to do this once or twice before (once with the Apache project
comes to mind).  In that case I was indeed mailed a form with some

be more formal that minimally necessary, but I also doubt that the
messages to the list is sufficient.  I think we should just wait for an
official request that specifies the appropriate procedure.
