Are there any other subcommittees of the ArbCom yet? If not, are there plans of creating more? Jon Harald Søby (talk) 09:31, 3 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There is the ban appeals subcommittee (BASC), which is an arbitrator-only working group that has no community element (as the AUSC does). These are the only subcommittees, and I don't think there are plans for more. AGK 10:28, 3 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I think we should form a group to study the process of creating new ArbCom subcommittees. —DragonHawk (talk|hist) 23:09, 3 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I think the Committee may be waiting until the new members are seated before going forward with more governance reform, including more sub-committees. Cla68 (talk) 23:39, 3 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
While the original question was merely asking for information, and that's fine, I think that asking "What other subcommittees can we create?" is the wrong approach. We should ask, "What tasks could be expedited by delegation to a subcommittee?". "None" is a perfectly valid answer.HereToHelp ^{(talk to me)} 18:28, 7 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
