Hi Edward, As you might know, generally speaking for PMC's merit is not transferable. But IPMC has one exception any member of the foundation can simply ask to be added (it still goes through the normal workflow of board acknowledgement and such, but without a formal IPMC voting). If the requester is not a member, IPMC also has to discuss and vote based on contributions, interest to help out just like any other PMC. Such requests to join should go to the private list. See [1] "Mentors MUST be on the IPMC. Any prospective Mentors who are not yet on the IPMC should ask to be added (by election). Email the application to priv...@incubator.apache.org. This process may take a few days."
I can see the source of your confusion both for asking on the general list and also interpreting an officer can be a champion. Its a misunderstanding, no worries. Your enthusiasm to help MRQL is certainly appreciated and once we have a IPMC member volunteer to champion the podling, everything should be back on track. I do not think MRQL will be hampered, just a delay. Its parked on the runway waiting to take off soon. Meanwhile sit back relax and have fun hacking.
