Thanks for the note André. I am still trying to get the feel for how the 
hierarchy works at LibO.

I have been taking part/lurking in many mailists and threads and one of 
my concerns are that, as we found here, there has been no real formal 
structure setup for the group membership. Voting on the CMS matter was 
there rendered ineffective.

May I suggest that the SC send out a call to all important 
groups/discussion topics that they now formalise their membership ranks 
through the Wiki?

For example, members who have a passionate interest in a group, 
website/marketing/UI/Logo/ etc (note that the SC would have to identify 
the categories) should be called on to register their ID's on the Wiki 
and start a Wiki page for their section with a link back to their 
members. The membership would be reviewed from time to time to cull the 
inactive members.

This would be a great first step as this would clearly identify the 
members interested and active on their respective teams. These members 
should then elect a spokesperson for their group.

This will make for more effective and focussed discussions. Membership 
voting is then rendered possible where needed and if a general 
"consensus" from the general membership vote is needed this is also 
possible.

Marc
