 Why don't you understand that the team in place does not have the resources 
 to handle charter changes? It is easy to dream of something like that, but 
 not at all easy to execute without the resources. There are a limited 
 number of volunteers involved. They already have their hands full. I 
 suggest you show some gratitude for these nice people that make Usenet 
 possible without asking for a dime in return. Demanding more from already 
 overworked volunteers is greedy, at the least. 
  
 Russ Allbery knows most about these matters, and he said..

 If you are interested in creating such a system, you have the thumbs up 
 from someone at the top. If you are not willing to go through all that 
 trouble yourself, please do not expect others to do it.
