Arguably, holding a position of responsibility within the Debian project or a
Debian Trusted Organization is what might trigger the completion of a CoI form.

Just as delegations are meant to be refreshed annually, I wonder whether CoIs
should be refreshed annually.
Also, perhaps the CoI 'form' should be an email template that submitters
complete and mail somewhere (GPG-signed). This 'somewhere' could be presented
in a list on some webpage or other. I'm not solutioning, here. I'm questioning
whether we want the non-repudiation that a GPG-signed email provides (or
similar mechanism).
