Why not simply allow trustees to veto a council decision ? This does |
| 12 |
not give trustees enough power to be a second council, but would |
| 13 |
permit them to stop something that they believe will damage Gentoo. |

If it's only stupid and not harmful it will be solved naturally with |
| 17 |
the current structure by waiting for the next elections (either at the |
| 18 |
end of the term or because enough council members resigned due to the |
| 19 |
situation). |
