Well, that answers the first half of the question then.

However Corey ended up in his post he wrote that bit on that page.

Then sometime afterwards a majority of developers stated that they
wanted global issues to be handled by the Council (most of which were
probably also Foundation members).  Seems like that was the last word
on the matter.

But, if the Council + Trustees want to sort it out more power to them.
I'm sure they'll quickly come to an agreement.
