It seems to me that the language committee formed itself and chose its own members. Why isn't someone like Andre Engels a member?
That's probably because he never asked and nobody nominated him. He looks like an good candidate to me.
Won't work. The committee works with consensus. The amount of disagreement I have with some of those outcomes makes me believe that no consensus could have been reached had I been a member. Thus, making me a member will most probably lead to no decision for a while because there's too many things Gerard and I cannot agree on, then me leaving the committee angrily and things getting back to as they were before.
