sometimes seen the project get delayed because MohammedAG is temporarily
unavailable, and that there is uncertainty or lack of input over how some
decisions get made, etc.

What did MohammadAG say to this proposal? He was the only person who
stepped up to do this, and has since been joined by merlin1991 et al. The
Community Council are a facilitating body, rather than an owning body, so
it's in your remit to assist MAG in this, if he's asked for help. But I
don't think you have the power for a "hostile" takeover, which is why I'm
asking. Of course, the CSSU could always be forked - but that's dependent
on having someone to do the work.

It's "doers" that Maemo, and the CSSU is missing, not people to sit by the
sidelines and direct. For example, the stable branch came out because
someone was willing to put in the work to define how it should be created,
how it should be managed and then to do that. Many people *said* there
should be a stable Maemo 5 CSSU, but if someone isn't willing to help with
the work, so what?

What would the CSSU TSG do? Can you give concrete examples? As a
*technical* steering, how would candidates' eligibility be established so
that a sensible and consistent set of architectural decisions would be made?

Thanks in advance,

Andrew
