For a body like this, it is very important to have continuity of technical knowledge, but more importantly of project culture, ethos, and history. That is best achieved by staggered elections in which some portion (third, half) of the PCS is elected every couple years. It sounds like we need to replace about 1/3 of the PCS now due to some of the group moving on. So that would be a convenient number to get.

The lack of feedback supports my idea to suggest to dissolve the current PSC :-)
