Only has 172. Until there is a process that is auditable and transparent I don't think

We have decided to change the FSA language to:
```
Committee members (“Members”) shall be elected by the contributors to
the Inkscape community. The project shall keep a list of the
contributors permitted to participate in that election process publicly
available on its website.
```
= Next Steps =
I will contact Karen to get the ball rolling on the change.
Thanks everyone!
As a follow up the next video meting, I will propose discussing the
