see how a group of more than 20 people max could be
useful in an advisory role. And I have no idea what

It can be representatives of the largest part(s), like the English
Wikipedia is the largest and perhaps most active, and most of active
members of this mailinglist are its regular, and I agree it will be
efficient, but at the same time it can happen such body of
representatives fail to representative the broader population of
Wikimedia project editors (like Enlgish Wikipedia editors are less
than the sum of editors of all other projects). If it aims to reflect
voices of users in a systematical scheme, not as well current sporadic
and relying on personal relationships, it would make a sense. But I'm
afraid it isn't at all the representatives of the entire Wikimedia
project community, neglecting the majority of editors who are not
involved into foundation activities.
