I see no reason to think that the White council would have consisted of only members of the Istari and High-Elven Ringbearers [or as in Cirdan's case - former ringbearers] Celeborn,Glorfindel [ having been sent by the Valar] were prime candidates and inclusion of the Chieftans of the Dunedain all seem possible. However as there is very little hard info [the fiinding of Galadriels qoute was keen work] we are all free to speculate as we will.

Lindil is oft found on posting on the Silmarillion Project at the Barrowdowns and working on a new Elven/Christian discussion board<a href="http://beta.ezboard.com/bosanwekenta" >Osanwe-Kenta</a> 'The dwindling Men of the West would often sit up late into the night, and awaken early before dawn- exchanging lore and wisdom such as they possessed , so that they should not fall back into the mean and low estate of those , who never knew or more sadly still, had indeed rebelled against the Light.' </p>
