Add WG liaisons to 1.5 release team

[kimwnasptd]

To further improve the release team's communication effectiveness we will define WG liaisons. We will also be pinging liaisons to ensure WGs end up getting release updates.

This was triggered by kubeflow/manifests#2084 (comment)

We also have a checkbox for picking up liaisons early on in the release, but didn't ensure this was checked https://github.com/kubeflow/community/blob/master/releases/handbook.md#preparation.

Getting better step by step. We will ensure the liaisons are written down early on in the next release

Just curious, how were the liaisons selected for this release?

[kimwnasptd]

I took a quick look at the WG tracking issues of the previous release and included some of the people there. I only added one to not make this list too long, since we will be tagging these people a lot [aside from tagging the WG leads].

@terrytangyuan would you also like to be a liaison for Training?

[terrytangyuan]

I see. I cannot commit anything this time around. The main reason why I asked is to make sure the people you've included are responsive, especially given the holidays.

[kimwnasptd]

I think this should be ready to merge

lgtm, however can we also get a lgtm from the liaisons to confirm their role as well?

The role of the WG liaison are defined as follows

Person responsible for liaising between the release team and the WG. The will be the main contact point for the Release Team to figure out the progress of the WG as well as required component versions, throughout the release. If a Release Team Member is already part of a WG then they could also serve as the liaison.
