Overall, I think the process works quite nicely. The RFC issue is a nice
way to collect comments and reactions. Since we have a defined process that
causes a decision to be taken, you know that something will happen, unlike
the pre-RFC world of sprawling mail threads that never reach a conclusion.

Nothing much to mention here. We've made small tweaks along the way, and I
assume we'll continue to do so if problems come up.

Maybe a bot should announce new RFCs to Slack, IRC, mailing list, wherever?
Or people can watch the repo. It feels a bit silly to manually announce new
RFCs ad-hoc when a bot could do it.
I have a future RFC in mind that is a more complex proposal for which I'd
like to attach a design document (in markdown) for review. How should this
work with the DevTools process? In the Rust world, each RFC is a pull
request with an *.md file with a `rendered` link to view it easily in the
PR. The DevTools RFC repo doesn't actually store any files (since we chose
to keep things simple and just use issues directly). Should I create an RFC
issue with a link to a gist? Something else? (Should I make a meta-RFC
about how to make such an RFC...?) :)

Keep it up, seems great to me.

Yes, thanks Julian! It's critical to have a step that drives the process
forward each week, or else things would get stuck in an undetermined state.
Great work!
