Your thoughts are good ones, but unfortunately we've not got to the
stage where they are applicable :-(((

The stages we need are these, IMO:

* Agree what the ballot process is
* Run ballots 180-182 (2 months+)
* Receive Exclusion Notices for 182 (at least)
* Form a PAG

Once we have the PAG, we then have the discussion about what to do about
the fact that some of the methods are encumbered and some are not. At
that point, feel free to join the PAG and re-state your point :-)
