It seems unlikely that this community team would consist of people who have sufficiently proven themselves in the boost community to maintain core components.

I'm sure there's more than one person who understands the core components. Having it otherwise would put Boost in a vulnerable posistion. There's a good reason that companies make sure no important component is understood by just one developer.

Just because someone isn't given commit access doesn't mean that they don't understand the component. You're conflating different issues.

Perhaps we could get back to using this thread to talk about the future of Utility? I think there are other threads with the community team discussion going on.
