Agreed.  Also, something we discussed at the sprints was the idea of each of 
the general governing PEPs will have certain knobs that can be tweaked.  E.g. 
the exact number of folks on a committee, or their term limits, etc.  It’s 
probably counterproductive to have competing PEPs that differ only in some of 
these details.  Ultimately, it’s up to the PEP authors, but I think we’ll come 
to consensus much more quickly when we can use the PEPs to describe the general 
shape of governance, and work the details out in the subsequent conversations.  
At least, that’s how I see it working for the PEP I’ve promised to author.

Cheers,
