Somebody who's going to babysit the collections, do buildroot overrides to build chains of packages, do package signing, urge (a) bodhi into pushing the updates, making sure they get rsynced properly, dealing with bug reports about broken deps, so on and so forth. I say this, because I'm not about to volunteer to do that work for you.
