I would love to. Can you show me the 28 hour days so I have some extra
hours? :)
Seriously tho, I think many of the FESCo folks _DO_ stay involved in
lots of things, some of them might not be as visible as people think
they would be. Or did you mean at some higher level?

I think move involvement wherever we can get it great, but I don't
think we should try and force people to do X hours of work on Y.
Also, if we want to require fesco and/or the board to be more involved
and proactive, we should note these requirements for the next election.
A possible idea for the next cycle:
- Wait until we have the list of approved features.
- Divide them up amoung fesco and have a 'point contact' for each that
is a fesco member.
- Each member is responsible for testing/tracking/talking to the
feature owner and getting them what they need to get things done as
well as knowing if something is not ready/etc.
I don't know how feasible this is given the large list of features
however.
