I think programming language standards committees are not an unlikely venue for hot conflict, quite the opposite if you talk just about conflict without the word "hot". I don't have the background on this one though.

Do you have any experience reaching to similar organizations? for example reporting compiler or linker bugs or trying to get support for new features or platform that are not well documented? If you don't and think it sounds fun go ahead and have fun if you can do that work without getting dragged into hot conflict.
