I personally wouldn't vote for that, but you are right, they can. |

I was on the council when this first came up. I had several discussions |
13 |
with the comrel lead at the time and comrel did not want to be involved |
14 |
in the process of qa temporarily suspending commit privileges. |

I'm not as concerned about the trustees/council as I am about other |
24 |
teams. |
25 |
For example, it is possible right now for someone to serve on qa, |
26 |
comrel and the council at the same time. |

I have voiced my concerns about this in the past, but there are a |
29 |
number of people in the distro who don't see this as a problem, so |
30 |
nothing happened. |

I do plan to bring up a glep 39 change again for this issue and we'll |
33 |
see what happens. |
