It is really very simple, any representative body of PostgreSQL should
be subject to the community. You are saying it won't be.

If it is the communities will that a EU member from Chile be on board
then that is the communities will and it should be done.

The people arguing against this are presenting themselves as not
trusting the very members they are trying to organize to make the
correct decisions about the organization.
