I agree, 100%.  I think we should have more representation from the
programming side of the community.

Right. The proposal is set up in such a way to encourage everyone -
programmer or not - to discuss the issues publicly. When it comes to making
decisions, a limited group of qualified people (in this case, programmers,
parts authors, or reviewers) to actually cast the vote to create an
LDraw.org standard. Naturally, the LSC members would be expected and
encouraged to participate in the public discussion, but they're the ones who
make the decision.

I agree that the slots should be open to everyone but I'd like to weed out
those who are the "rainy day" LDrawers.  In other words, you need to have
proven your competency and commitment.  We could go on and on about what
qualification someone must have in order to be declared competent but I
think the reqs as they stand are good enough, with or without my suggestion.

I suppose whether the LSC private list is publicly viewable or not is
something else up for debate - on one hand, transparency is a good thing, on
the other, it would be nice for them to have a forum where they don't have
to be politically correct.

I'm am not and will never be "polically correct".  I say keep the list open.
If someone has a personal beef with anyone in the LSC then they can take the
courteous path of private Email discussion not via the public forum.  The
public boards are no place for attacks on a persons character or ability.
