I was on the Council for several years in a row. When I first got on, I
was super enthusiastic and always came prepared. However, after a few
years, I burned out. I noticed the same in other council members that
slowly petered away during the year. Since at any given time there are
only a few enthusiastic gentoo devs who would step up to do council
work, and that incumbents tend to be re-elected, I'm not surprised that
this is a chronic problem.
The best advice is to underline mgorny's point and recognize that there
is real work involved and that it is important.
