My gut reaction to reading this proposal was no!  While I can see a need
for reducing the number of people involved with a complaint, I firmly
feel that in order to ensure fairness in the complaint process that
there needs to be checks and balances in place. The recent changes to
split the investigative from the judical side of developer relations and
make everything transparent as possible does much to accomplish this.

I strongly feel that moving back to a small committee would be a step
backwards in that respect.
