Neophytos,
your point about diversity and independence of any individual organization/company is good - this is one of the key strengths of open source software. It's exactly because of this that OpenACS is still flourishing today which is pretty amazing if you consider that the companies that created much of our toolkit are no longer around.

Given that Lars Pind, Don Baccus, and Jeff Davis all represent different companies or organizations we already have good diversity. I could imagine that those three people will start up the core team and then a couple more may be elected in by the community. Those people are likely to come from different companies, be free lancers, or hobby programmers.
