I think the core problem is a fairly loosely defined process for decision making that leaves us open to being schizophrenic about timing, and with a demonstrated inability to discern when we're reaching concensus and what to do when we aren't.

A larger committee might be a good thing for lots of reasons, but I'm not convinced it will help the problem I think you're trying to address as much as this implies.

Re: Technical committee resolution
Hi, I guess the idea is that (a) new member(s) will "bring along"/"make happen" the structures & procedures which seem to be missing... Which is not totally far out - at least if this is communicated to the new member(s) ;-) More people alone won't change anything. But wasn't that clear from the beginning? regards, Holger pgp6s0I1D6AuI.pgp Description: PGP signature
