There may be a couple of genuinely inactive participants on the current committee roster it would make sense to replace. This would be a good topic for our new DPL, whoever that ends up being, to take up with the committee after the election is past. Meanwhile, my observation is that most of the noise about the committee comes from people who would like the committee to take a more active guiding role in Debian, as opposed to limiting ourselves to the narrow set of "ultimate decision making" responsibilities defined in our constitution. However, it is not clear to me that this is desireable, since for most things I can think of where the technical committee might choose to take a proactive stance, there is probably already some other group of participants in the project better equipped to make and carry forward suitable proposals. I hope everyone in Debian understands that we stand ready and willing to tackle any issue within our charter that is brought to us. It would be unfortunate if issues aren't brought to us because there is some perception that we're inactive or uninterested in helping resolve conflicts!
