BTW, I just checked the proposal process documentation, and it says:

-

* Now the shepherd proposes to accept or reject the proposal. To do so, they

   - post their recommendation, with a rationale, on the GitHub discussion
   thread,
   - label the pull request as Pending committee review,
   - re-title the proposal pull request, appending (under review) at the
   end. (This enables easy email filtering.)
   - drop a short mail to the mailing list informing the committee that
   discussion has started.

which isn't exactly in line with the paragraph above. Shouldn't the first
line be something like "post their recommendation, with a rationale, to the
committee mailing list", and remove the final bullet?

Cheers
Simon
