Jefsey speaks from a brief and sorry experience as a member of the idno- 
exeCom (7 elected members). He is right.

Derek, try to work out how such a committee can act with accountability and 
at the same time be protected from deliberate sabotage, from within or from 
without.
How can the members trust each other without meeting f2f?
If you can find the solution, I'll support the idea.
