As a little update to this - the membership committee and board [1] had
a phone conference last Friday evening to discuss this. The board has
come up with a proposal to which they sent to us during the meeting -
currently the membership committee are reviewing this document. I had
hoped that it would have been sent to foundation-list gnome too, but
that appears not to be the case :( 

Sadly, the meeting minutes haven't yet appeared either :/

Absolutely, I completely agree. If you want to catch up with the
proposal and some small amount of feedback, you can read the public
archives of the membership committtee -
