Carcharoth: In fact we do have quite a few mailing list admins around. These include: Pierre Abbat, Brion VIBBER, Robert Merkel, Manning Bartlett, Vicki Rosenzweig, Bryan Derksen, Taw, AxelBoldt, The Cunctator, Magnus Manske, Tim Starling, and several others I've neglected to mention. As far as I remember they do not seem to have done anything that would violate the community's trust.
I still haven't seen a compelling case that there's a problem. The ArbCom has had no problems at all desysopping people for cause in the past few years. "Community confidence" appears to be a codeword for "we think we can get a lynch mob up even if they haven't actually broken any rules or done anything wrong."
