I second this idea. It might be easier for all participants if there was
a list of what's been agreed upon and what outstanding issues exist so
there's a clear plan for progress and resolution.

One other idea is an independent, trusted free software facilitator for
some difficult topics to help everyone through discussing these topics
and coming to agreement. They could also be involved in keeping track of
the process. Off the top of my head, Bradley Kuhn might be a good option
(although I have no clue if he'd be interested or able) and I'm sure
there are others.
