The community could produce alternative ideas that might lead to more innovation. To suggest one alternative: would volunteers like to have an elected media team, similar to the election of the Fedora Council? How many more ideas might come from other volunteers with a consultation beyond this mailing list?
I don't see a particular benefit in having elections for this kind of thing. The people who are involved in Fedora media efforts are there because they've been working on podcasts, videos, art, etc., and I don't see a need to have a select committee.
I don't really want to emphasize anything for or against my own ideas, I simply wanted to suggest there is a whole lot of space for empowering people rather than putting limits on people. I'm sure other people may have ideas that are more relevant.
That is not a criticism of the policy or the existing efforts people are making.
My suggestion to allow time for wider consultation was not an attempt to make it go away, quite the opposite, I feel that it is important to talk about how communications works in any community. Having that discussion too quickly doesn't do it justice.
