I'm not very comfortable with this at all. Wikimedia generally has a
track record of not being ageist in the assignment of community roles.
Please elaborate on the legal ramifications -- privately or publicly.
Perhaps we can identify those steward actions which could be legally
problematic, and those which aren't, and split the role accordingly?
