While this doesn't fix all of the issues with Spins, I think Christoph's
proposal seems good at improving the parts of the process it addresses.

One thing I think tied to this that also needs improvement is communicating
which spins should have isos built and which of these should be torrent
only. Currently a wiki page is used for that and I think it would make
sense to involve the ticketting system in that part of the process as
well. (If nothing else make sure there is a ticket to set that wiki
page up.)
