enWP has pretty clearly demonstrated its lack of support for any committees not either open to all who wish to participate, or else chosen by the enWP community as a whole.
Yes, that is quite clear.
I accepted membership in a committee chosen by ArbCom, under the assumption it would be generally supported. Having found out my assumption was wrong, I can't say I'd want to repeat the embarrassing experience.
I had a similar experience where the committee was chosen at the Foundation level, and I regret it to this day.
I urge those--like myself-- considering applying to do as I intend to do, which is to wait till the community has given its support.
Excellent advice, David.

Thanks for the info. It would be handy if you could tell us what the board resolutions are.
