Keep in mind that it's just adding more people to a committee who may not care 
about other things such as sponsorship stuff, policy related to packages, 
various other stuff that FESCO current has to vote on.  Its adding more 
people, making quorum harder to reach, especially when they might not have 
any interest/knowledge of whats being voted on.

Personally I don't like a "commitee" for each little task that needs done.  
I'm much more a fan of "hey these are the people doing the work, make sure 
they talk to eachother, and report progress somewhere".  So to that end, I'm 
going to continue doing work, and reporting progress to places like the 
Fedora Board, mailing lists, blogs, whatever.
