The concept makes sense to me, but I'd be interested to understand  
how that would be implemented. All decisions of the trust happen in  
discussions on the IETF mailing list, and the consensus of the  
community as determined by J i m F l e m i n g rules?

As Jorge pointed out:

This is covered by Section 6.1(c) of the Trust Agreement.  If
there are ever fewer than 3 Trustees, the IESG will appoint new
Trustees.  The existing Trustees do NOT become "permanent appointments"
if the IAOC is dissolved.  Rather, the IESG would appoint 3 Trustees
until the IAOC or some successor is constituted.
