NovaLieutenants
Rationale
The number of people contributing code to nova has grown dramatically over the last few months, and it is becoming difficult to maintain a clear picture of the entire code base. We are attempting to move towards a somewhat more sectioned view of the code, where there is at least one person who is responsible for maintaining a given section of code. This is similar to the process used for linux development.
