The Technical Committee isn't close to this at all; it is a
constitutionally-defined body with a precise mandate to arbitrate disputes
between developers (and optionally to propose general resolutions for the

place for this discussion, then you should discuss with the Debian developer
community at large via debian-devel or debian-project.
