Cary suggests that it focus on enWP. As I see it, 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. 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 urge those--like myself-- considering applying to do as I intend to do, which is to wait till the community has given its support.

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