Agreed, but will the Conservancy take into considerations all sides
and all copyright holders?  Or will it pick and choose which
developers it will listen to?  And how will it decide if there is
disagreement amongst the copyright holders in their clubhouse?

Saying that you will striving for consensus is nice, but it's pretty
clear from these threads that there won't be 100% agreement all the
time.  If consensus can't be achieved, what then?  Will there be
voting?  Will it be weighted by how much code various copyright
holders might own?  Does the Conservancy reserve the right to throw
out copyright holders who don't vote the right way?

I would think a responsible person would want to know answers to these
and similar questions before lending their name/reputation to the
Conservancy.  After all, these are pretty critical governance issues.
Maybe this is something that should be on the Conservancy's web site,
along with a list of those copyriht holders who have already agreed to
support the Conservancy?

Cheers,
