I appreciate the interest in reducing import frustration all around, but there's nothing stopping the wiki from being cleaned up in a way that fosters group discussion and there's nothing stopping people from turning lessons learned into well-defined rules. >From the above example, what's the "appropriate amount of time for the community to review the data"? That seems like something we could define without a committee. I'm not saying we shouldn't have a committee, but I believe process definition - and not organizational structure is our current biggest issue with imports.
