As Kevin said, the challenge isn't doing it, the challenge
is in getting every spec project to do it.
For #3, we can always add the link back to the PR as text in the
issue.
The ability to track progress via a project board, as we did for so
many other aspects of this release, seems like it would be helpful,
and probably better than a spreadsheet.

#2 just requires adding a comment with the check list items, which
can be copied from the existing spec committee comment. I believe
that is what Alasdair had done.
The
problem with
#2 is that then we have to somehow get each Spec Project
to add the checklist...
If you think about this Jakarta EE 8 process we're just
completing,
how would we have gotten each Spec Project to update their
PR with the
appropriate checklist? Sounds like a frustrating
process...
For that reason,
I vote to just do what we have been doing (#1). It's a
little cumbersome,
but it works -- especially for the Spec Committee members.
Option #3 would
also work if we had yet-another-template for creating
another issue. I
don't think Github has the idea of a child issue, does it?
Getting
the newly created issue automatically linked with the
original Spec PR
would be a nice benefit.
