i'd keep them as sep topics as the first should go through quickly without 
discussion.  the latter i'm not terribly sold on -- the understanding is that 
a council member should have the good sense to only pick an appropriate proxy.  
the definition of "appropriate" is of course up for grabs.  ignoring the 
tools, there is the possibility of bringing non-devs further into the Gentoo 
fold (assuming the proxy is well versed in the topics at hand and not just 
"another body") ...

then again, looking at the 4 year history, this has never happened, so it's 
doubtful it will happen.  guess the proposal is fine.
