For those who may not have seen it, I wrote a draft charter for the
backports team:

I really think the DMB needs something like this, especially 1)
control of its own membership and 2) a SINGLE Administrator to resolve
policy interpretation disputes. Normal DMB members should be able to
focus ONLY on the actual mission of the DMB, not on administrative
stuff (unless they actually WANT to focus on admin work).
