There already is such a committee.  Its the National Scouting & Youth Services Committee, which is headed by Dave O'Leary.  We talked about this anniversary and the 100th Anniversary of the BSA in 2010.

But we have a couple of more National Conventions before that date.  I would hope/expect something more formal in 2004.
