I still find weird that this document doesn't include a provision that
requires the TB to ACK any change to it, but I understand that they
don't want it, so meh…

The document states that the team chair will be "approved" (? should
this be "appointed" instead?) with a process specified in the Policies
page, but I can't seem to see a paragraph describing that.  TBH, I would
just list it in Charter §5.3 instead, just saying "The chair shall be
elected with a majority vote within the current team members; the
current chair has a casting vote" or something similarly simple.  This
is so to avoid another possibly useless cross-document reference.

Can we drop the possibility of people joining the team with just a IRC
meeting agenda item?  I really want a full email with link to LP
profile, etc... else my mind really can't work on it.

The voting doesn't seem to have any provision for a casting vote? (which
"obviously" should be in the hands of the team chair (which… in case the
meeting chair is a different person, the casting vote is still in hands
of the team chair, hopefully it's obvious).



These details are the only points I have to make on the two documents.

Thank you for working on them, and sorry it took me forever to read
through them -.-
