Hi Art,

Here's a rudimentary UI to make it easier for chairs and team contacts to send these review notices:
 http://www.w3.org/2014/11/getreview/

Would something like this be useful?

Much can be done to improve the tool; I've included a few notes in the page to start. This is meant to foster discussion and
then serve as input to the Systems Team to create something well-tuned to Chairs and Team-contacts.

+1 to the proposed name public-review-announcement@w3.org. 

Here's an example of the generated email:

-----
Subject: HTML6 - review requested
To: public-review-announcement@w3.org
Reply-to: public-html@w3.org

Hello,

The HTML Working Group requests review of the following specification before 2014-01-01:

   HTML6
   http://www.w3.org/TR/html6

This publication is a First Public Working Draft [1]. Therefore, 
while the specification is likely to change significantly, it is 
helpful to let the group know whether you think this is a good 
general direction.

Please send comments and questions to public-html@w3.org

The group has specifically asked for feedback on the following:

============================================
Please review section 7.
