  I think that is doable.  Though short.

  Not ignore thier objections, but let's say they have no more or less
weight than anyone elses.  And this depends if the changes to POC are
incorporated to include diffrent and more INternet community groups.
If so, I see no reason for this either becoming a problem or having
any concern to POC's objections given the change in the makeup and
rules governing how POC is to operate.  As some of the adendums
have suggested.
