TAG chair selection timing

Open mnot opened this issue 6 years ago • 1 comments

In the director-free branch:

Participants in the [=TAG=] chose by consensus their Chair or co-Chairs

However, when this happens is not specified. Currently, the Chairs serve at the pleasure of the Director, but if the TAG is going to select its own chairs, it seems best to specify that at the beginning of each term (i.e., once a year), a chair or chairs is selected from the members of the TAG.

Otherwise, the chair selection doesn't ever reflect the consensus of the current TAG; just a past one.

In normal operation, a TAG would select one or more chairs to continue service, unless there was some reason to select a new one.

For what it's worth, this is roughly what the IAB does.

I believe that the TAG should select or confirm or choose their chair after every regular (not special) election.
