At the risk of sounding exclusionary, I wonder what the goal of defining the 
committee is if the larger community can vote on each proposal. As I understood 
it, the committee has voting rights, while the larger community has viewing and 
commentary rights.

We *do* most certainly value wide input. But voting is quite sensitive. In 
particular, you recommend a threshold of 70% before something is accepted. 70% 
of what? Of votes? Who is eligible to vote? And how do we publicize a vote? 
When is it held? What if that period of time is a big holiday in some country? 
Etc. It all seems to be a can of worms.
