Thank you for your well thought through comments.
Status and activity of upstream projects has steering power, specially of large, complex subsystems. There is no distro that can steer kernel, Xorg, KDE, Gnome, direction as that would mean it has to create branch and take care of the development and maintenance. That is not going to happen. Even smaller projects have power to steer distro direction if they are unique and important.
This is the problem I suggest we try to solve with a SC.
And how would you do that. SC will tell kernel devs what they have to develop, or openSUSE will not use kernel anymore.
No, I don't foresee the SC telling anyone what to develop. A SC should obviously work with the structure we already have.
After all above, I'm sure that some steering committee, (board, commission: name it to your liking) will not change landscape unless it controls manpower able to take over existing tasks.
The right to veto is an impressive amount of power.
What a words :)
What supports those words?

Did you secretly bought out SUSE? That will give you impressive amount of power, at least within SUSE.
Rajko, I'm making a suggestion, I'm certainly not pretending I myself have got or should be given any such powers.
