Does the name really matter?
You can call the staff Grand Pubahs and the board
the Great Potentates if you like, but it doesn't change
their role.

What if this Volunteer Council has no real

This is more along the lines of what I've been thinking about. If the
VC is a community-based structure, and does not change the governance
structure of the foundation, it's a moot point entirely. Th VC
shouldn't change the structure of the foundation any more then the
chapcom or the languages subcommittee or any other advisory committee
do. If terminology is a problem, perhaps we should rename it to
something more benign, like "volunteer committee", or "community
advisory board" or something.
