They could (in theory) demand that infra changes policies, i.e. active
recruiting to reduce bottlenecks or open demands for hardware. I think
it wouldn't help much though ...

I guess the question is "What can we do when a project misbehaves and
our efforts to help are being denied?" (Please excuse the offensive
formulation, but that is afaict roughly what jakub and others
communicate when they wish to summon the council).

Any ideas how to improve communication appreciated :-)
