Thanks for the comments.

After considering what is needed by PHP, I believe the vote should
primarily be thought of as a choice between Derick and David.  If
either wants to bring in a co-RM to share the load, then I suggest
Lukas be first choice.

I'd be happy with either Derick or David as RM.  When voting, I'd give
my +1 to David this time.  We might enter a quick release cycle so the
RM would change over quickly.

Disclaimer: David works at Sun which was recently bought by Oracle.
