I think the only reasonable 'group' that we could define as having any authority would be the four people listed as founders. Now, I'm not saying that they (particularly me) have made better contributions than other folks on this list, but I'm looking for something that is agreeable.
This or the people listed as admins of the sourceforge.net project. Or better, combine the two groups to get an odd number of members.
For the sake of discussion, I'm going to call this group the board.
From then on, I think we should keep things simple. A person can be added to the board by a vote of the board. Same with removal. I imagine there will be a few adds starting out, but then things will die down significantly.
What if the sky is falling over the city where the next Libre Graphics Meeting is taking place and all members of the board are present, how the new board would be elected? I think is better to have a larger group voting for adding a new member.
