The IETF ATOMPUB Working Group has (or, the mailing list) 213 members. If  
we cut that in half to account for idle people and such, that's still ~107  
members. And yet, there has been a well-defined procedure for reaching  
consensus that the chairs of ATOMPUB have gone through and had success  
with over and over again, leading to one finished standard (RFC-4287) and  
another one currently in Last Call.

The more people the more work, surely, but seeing the success of ATOMPUB  
and its large amount of contributors, I can't see why this should become  
an insurmountable task for the HTML WG.
