I think it would be sufficient if we officially accept our somewhat
anarchic approach. Basically, we could have (appoint, elect) specific
officer positions, such as 'server admin', 'primary evangelist', 'parts
library administrator', 'innocent bystander'. The group of officers would
comprise the 'ldraw.org committee', who would have to responsibility of
keeping things going, and possibly deciding on issues. There wouldn't be
any ruling hierarchy[1] -- all officers would be on an equal level.
