Yep, it was confusion central ;).  I don't think there are any
membership related issues at all with the council as far as I
understand it.  I think "membership" was relating more to who
is contributing on the team.  Not the political membership issues.

Right now, I think the AiCs are to drive the looks, and I imagine
the council will probably discourse with the AiCs.  Of course,
until the process has proven itself, I don't expect anyone to
trust the form.  Trust will come.

Yep.  It was a political scientist and a geologist talking about
panty hose.  Miscommunication.

Again, that's only my understanding.
