Hi Daniel. The way I see it is that there is no opportunity to expand anything, leadership or otherwise, because the current system is autocratic. Questions have been asked in public, and from what I can now gather in private, about regular members doing different things. Unfortunately these questions get stonewalled. I personally have no problem with any individual per see but I do have an issue with a so called open community not allowing the community to vote on its own structure.
What this community needs is an opportunity to choose its own destiny and this needs to be a voluntary choice, i.e. the current leadership team need to allow it to happen. If the community decides to allow the status quo to continue then everyone must accept that choice, if the community wants to change the current system then the current leadership team must accept that choice. It is also important to understand that this proposal is a trial so it will be up for review in 18 (?) months or so. If it doesn't work so be it, at last something has been tried.
