Hi Risker / Anne,
In response to the points you raise:
* A panel suggests a group of people who discuss and decide things, it wouldn't
be that, it would be a pool of adjudicators.
* The home page shows 130,858 active editors, if 15% of those are female then
it means there must be 19,628 female
That’s really cool.
(Just don’t read the comments. Awful misogyny contained therein. Is
there any way we can get that crap removed?)

Hi there,
I'm flagging the major issues that need to be considered.
1) we can not promise anonymity for the people acting as adjudicators. Any
attempt to have anonymous people hearing a case will attract attention from
a group if obsessive people who out anyone who is anonymous. Plus at times
