I meant to add the following:
Under the charter, the OGB really has no control over the non-CG
and non-Project pages.  The website, the infrastructure and the
[NonCG/P] pages are (or could be claimed to be) Sun assets.

Just as in the trademark and branding discussion [which is on hold,
pending OGB action on the OpenSolaris/Indiana issue], Sun is
opening up its control of these assets and allowing the OS.o
community to provide input and suggestions.  But, in the legal end,
Sun retains the ownership and control.

Setting up an OS.o committee that pretends to take that control
from Sun (rather than trying to work with Sun) suggests that we
are either looking to force a confrontation or to set it up for
failure.

As I said, this seems wrong.
