That was a bit of my thought: if the mentors aren't engaged enough to vote people in, then what are they doing there.(*) The basic concept can certainly be fiddled with. I see a couple ways: increased mentor count for the bootstrap work, and/or maybe set the initial list at (5) rather than (0). But back to (*), the mentors may only be there for *community* development/education. As stated elsethread, such mentors may not be properly equipped to evaluate merit for committership. That's a fair point which I had not considered. ... So you could maybe imagine (1) Champion, (3) Mentors, and (5) PPMC/committers to start any podling. Cheers, -g
