Where is the use case for added churn and loss of institutional
memory? Is there an addded benefit for the tech ctte, just added new
embers, with no effort made to ensure responsiveness of new members?
With new members added routinely, is there any mechanism to
ensure the new members are indeed technically competent, and not just
chums of the DPL?
Are these changes actually addressing the problems or
dysfunction of the tech ctte, or we just making chnages for changes
sake? Which particular dysfunction is being addressed? Do we have
reason to believe that churn will solve that dysfunction?
Why is the DPL the proper mechanism to bring forth this change?
