With any number larger : than 12 it is VERY HARD to reach consensus on anything. Without a : process by which we agree to reach consensus it is impossible. There are only only 8 core team members, unless you mean something different by "core" here than core@freebsd.org. Otherwise, I tend to agree with your basic premise that it is process and not tools at the heart of this problem.
