8 What do we mean by a council lead? If we're talking about someone to
9 oversee their meetings, then I see no problem with it. If we're talking
10 about a Gentoo Lead, then I'm against that as I don't want to ever see
11 the council reduced to a single person body - there are some advantages
12 to collective bodies. One of them is the requirement for people to talk
13 and to be able to generate a consensus.

18 As stated above, I think we should have a collective body. Therefore to
19 choose someone to oversee meetings should be a council decision -
20 including the choice to not have someone overseeing the meetings.
