Take a look at the current steering committee, it's not far from this goal.
And if we consider at most 9 members then you have

2 helix people
2 eazel people
2 redhat people
2 independents
1 other left

There could be more independents, just not more single company people.  Even
with these restrictions I bet the majority of people (at most 7 though) will
be employed by some company.
