Team organization

https://groups.google.com/d/topic/django-developers/8b-wxEzWO3c/discussion
Technically anyone is encouraged to wontfix stuff as part of triaging, just that being part of the team makes it binding (i.e. requires discussion on the ML before changing it back). That's a good one though, because it boils down to the authority of team members.

One thing that frustrated me a fair bit before I joined the team: not being able to "claim" responsibility over a ticket. Lot of patches (especially before Tim became omnipresent) stall because no core dev want them enough to take the responsibility of a commit. IMO non-committer team members should have the right to say "this goes in, I'm responsible for it", then the normal process applies: unless lack of consensus arises within a few days the patch goes in, merged mechanically by any committer. People that consistently show good judgement when claiming responsibility should be given committer rights.

Other areas where committer rights aren't required:
- Representing the team / Speaking on behalf of the team.
- Participating in formal voting.
- Electing other team members.
