This was also a constructive response; thank you.

You may be correct in your argument that I shouldn't try to fill both
roles.  But I promised to evaluate your contributor guidelines, and 
I've taken Michael Schwendt's suggestion that the best way to do that
would be to try to push a package through the system and see what I
discover on the way.

One positive thing I can tell you about the early stages is that I am 
rather impressed with rpmlint.
