Didn't work with Kelly Martin. In practice it is those who have been directly elected by the community who hold the strongest position. Jimbo apointees have the problem that they instantly pick up oposition in the form of people wanting to blame "the cabal" for things.

Ok, good points, replace "appointed by" with "approved by". In other words, exactly the same procedure as for appointing ArbCom members. And not by coincidence.
