Those are some pretty broad leaps Pavel. They were never tasked to take that decision. They came to a conclusion that the process is broken, they thought to do away with the process, they picked a winner, and set about corresponding with them, without telling anyone. Then, developed an entire roadmap of where they want to see Wikimania next for the near foreseeable future. All of this was never tasked to them in the first place.
This committee isn't "community approved", their mandate isn't community approved. Its members weren't elected, in fact, I don't know why and how these people got on this committee, or how long they will be in-charge - because someone certainly seems to think they are in-charge. Maybe I missed a call or notification asking to join or approve or comment as to who should be on this committee.

Theo, you argue process, I argue outcome. They faced a problem, they tackled it, they made a decission. And their mandate? They *showed up and volunteered*. That is enough mandate in my book.
The revolution will not be community-approved.
