Bug#795857: Constitutional Amendment: TC chair appointment



Package: tech-ctte
Severity: normal

Hi all,

here's my understanding of the state of our "TC chair appointment" 
discussion.

In June 2014, in <21420.15439.20061.525596@chiark.greenend.org.uk>, Ian 
described a problem he wanted to see fixed in the constitution:

Le jeudi, 26 juin 2014, 16.29:19 Ian Jackson a écrit :
> The TC chair arrangements have what is arguably a bug, which is that
> the TC cannot change a sitting chair other than by the chair resigning
> or leaving the committee.
> 
> I think the TC chair should be reappointed regularly (annually?), and
> that a new chair election should be held when the TC composition
> changes.
> 
> If we are having a formal TC member retirement scheme, and TC chair
> election when a new member is appointed, then perhaps making explicit
> provision for time-based chair retirement is unnecessary.

As far as I could find, this mail didn't get answered, either way, let's 
use this bug to consider this proposal.

Cheers, 
OdyX
