Re: Maximum term for tech ctte members
I think rotation is a good idea. My main minor concern is that it
doesn't allow reappointing members to the CTTE if there are no
nominees whom the DPL and CTTE finds acceptable (or even if there are no
nominees at all).
Not allowing people to be reappointed if there are nominees and they're
just not acceptable may be a design goal, but not allowing reappointment
if there are no nominees does not.

Probably should be "will be extended" instead of "may be extended".

There was also some discussion of this during the CTTE meeting too:

Thanks for drafting this.

Miracles had become relative common-places since the advent of
entheogens; it now took very unusual circumstances to attract public
attention to sightings of supernatural entities. The latest miracle
had raised the ante on the supernatural: the Virgin Mary had
manifested herself to two children, a dog, and a Public Telepresence
Point.
