OK. I will note that the OGB has chosen to be hands-off and not actually create policy around everything. Guidance is offered on their discussion list, which is why I referred you there. (Of course, you can always choose to try to influence the OGB, if more concrete policies to follow are important to you.) Communities have a great deal of freedom to govern their community as they want, and I guess I really do hope this community will choose to operate around determining internal consensus and then communicating it to external entities. That's why I was seeking consensus on a facilitator choice. But, that's just me. I don't represent all views in the community. :) liane
