To expand a little:

One thing I wanted to avoid was having a committee who were elected to do 
all the work and take the wrap for things not working while everyone else 
sits on their hands and complains.  I see the organising group more along 
the lines of a group of coordinators who facilitate getting things done, 
involving as many members as necessary.
The organising group isn't an exclusive body that has meetings behind 
closed doors, all members are welcome to join in discussions and it is 
intended that a new mailing list be set up for discussing Wellylug 
organisational matters (just to keep it out of the main list), all members 
are welcome to participate.

If a member thinks it is a good idea that the Wellylug does such-and-such 
then that member should be prepared to muck in an help implement it, at the 
very least be prepared to search out others who will help do it (whatever 
'it' is :-).

The above is my interpretation of how things are and may not coincide with 
the views of others in the organising group, but I'm sure they will point 
out any areas of dispute ;-)
