So, what's the line we draw? 2 liaisons? 3? A dozen? 50?

If we're allowing any number of liaisons, I'd like to change
PostgreSQL's charter so we can have 3.

Can we hear from someone at OpenWRT about this?

Given that SPI will just continue to add affiliates over time, I
personally think that allowing *any* organization to have more than one
authoritative liaison is a mistake. It doesn't scale for the number of
projects SPI needs to support. I'm not a board member, I don't get a
vote on this, but that's my opinion.
