Adrian: And to decide on who to delegate duties to, we can still have a 
majority vote to select one person, but then submit them to the partners 
for final approval.  It would work very much like the Australian and 
British parlimentary system where a bill must be passed by two houses of 
parliment. (The american equivalent is congress to president, but with a 
lot of presidents).  I think we can make this work.

Adrian: The other point (which is suggested by the above) is that we can 
vote to make certain issues not require a unanimous vote but every 
partner would have to agree to that change.  (I'm not suggesting that we 
should change anything of course, lets see how things work with unanimity 
first).
