How about making that a 9, and then have members with defined service
times, so you end up with 3 new members every year?

With the other options as you wrote them that might mean the same 3 get
appointed, if they did good work and the DPL wants to keep them, but it
would give a maximum time a non/low-active member would be on.


Then add some rule that missing two (or three, or whatever number) votes
the TC did means an immediate removal, with the DPL appointing someone
new for the remaining time of the "kicked" member.

Where missed would count unless one gives a good reason why one doesnt
vote on it. (Vacation, ill, personally involved in the case, like Ian
right now would be with dpkg, ...)

And that would then also leave the DPL the option to appoint an interim
member.

Of course such short appointments shouldn't be done if its mostly
senseless, like for a period of 3 til 6 months, unless the committee
would drop below the 4 members.
