I agree with much of what you posted, but this one bit keeps coming up
and I'm not sure how well it will work.  What happens if the two can't
agree?  Devrel appoints a lead and council doesn't confirm.  Who runs
Devrel until the the new lead is selected?  What if the two cannot
reach agreement?

Maybe just spell that out - Devrel selects and council confirms, and
if by so many days after the election of a new council agreement
hasn't been reached then the council can appoint?

I think all are agreed that Council/Trustees/etc should generally be
hands-off, and in reality this is how they have been operating all
along.  However, I think it still makes sense to keep these bodies at
the top of the chain of command.  It isn't really healthy to define
ambiguous command structures (though our Council/Trustees division
obviously raises this issue already).
