As ideal as that is, it hasn't happened. The meta page on the VC
hasn't produced any results in its several years of existence.
So instead, we see a closed group (decided by one person)
trying to decide what we want this VC to be instead of working
it on that page with everyone else. All while legitimizing it
with a resolution.
I prefer the former solution as well, Mike.

My conclusion is that the members below (as

do, clear it legally, and begin to define the process of appointing
people
to it. That does not, I believe, require a resolution this wordy or
with
this level of detail.
I don't see why a self-appointed working group even needs a Board
resolution. Such a group could meet, engage other community members,
and so on, and continue to discuss and develop proposals without the
Board's having to do anything.
