How do you know that the people who ask you a list is really a
PostgreSQL guy? When I asked for a list for -tr (which is the first
country-specific list...) noone objected since people knew me. 

"Endorsing by a known community member" is a good option, when there are
few people in that specific country. 


... BTW, "leadership" does not meet the meaning that I wanted to say.
Ignore that part, please.

Once we create the list, people from local community will ask for
updates whenever the list administrator cannot administrate the list any
longer.
