I think this is a great idea, it would be a good exercise to go
through the existing ideas that are slated and clean them up in a
clear well reasoned way.  the limited amount in the queue at any one
point in time is probably a good idea as well...force the asking of
the tough questions and whatnot..

any idea how the resolution process will go?  part of the problem now
is that things just get kicked up on the mailing list and then
disappear down on the list to atrophy.  should there be an attempt to
clear one or two MEPs a week? :)

Not sure if it's apropriate for us, but Python has a similar mechanism
called Python Enhancement Proposals (PEPs)[1]. They don't have the same
layout for all the requests, but they have a set of states for each
proposal.

I think this is a process that should outlive Maven 2.1 and should cover
all parts of The Maven Project (where Maven the Tool is one sub-project).

Just might be worth taking a look at for ideas.
