I wouldn't be surprised if one of the results of the stable WG is an updated GLEP 40 that (new GLEP replacing existing) that allows for MAINTAINER self-stabilization. Personally I don't like "any developer may perform" part of it. The maintainer is responsible, and should at least ack stabilization at all before anything is stabilized (for arch-team stabilization as well), and consequently individual stabilizations by developers, either the maintainer itself or someone with applicable hardware.
