All I really wanted to achieve with this email is that someone steps up
and takes control of this, and that we should somehow define who is
going to do what before starting. The worst thing would be to put some
kiind of contest online and then have it fall apart because nobody wants
to take care of it.

If the artists team does all the work in this alone, then we probably won't
ask for anyones' opinion very loudly.
