This is OK (it is the way it works in representative democracies, or
should work...), but we do need explicit consent from all of our members
to proceed. I recall the chair is just a facilitator/moderator, not a
ruler... :)

However, the drawback is that you run the risk of having always those
2-3 people doing all the work and deciding for everyone else (in my case
at least, this is very uncomfortable), so I continue to hope we will
have more constituents' presence in the list.
