Hi,
I mostly agree with Lukas and Axel's comments. I also don't see the
"chairman" as a module owner.
And I don't see the "why?" for a REMO specific module (together with
its submodules, including Council).
Looking back at REMO's objectives, they are: building tools for
community, facilitating resources, building local participation.
If I look at the Governance Module System, there are already modules
like Participation Metrics module, Productive Communication Module and
other code modules where current/former council members and mentors
could contribute (eventually as peers).

We seem to have fallen off the list with this discussion.
Chairmanship will rotate every 2 months and during that 2 months the person
needs to be listed in the Wiki as a module owner?
I'm definitely concerned then that this will results in potentially stale
documentation and a tremendous lack of historical perspective for the Mozilla
Reps module itself. The Module system seems to exist largely to give each
module a sense of historical perspective: the hows and whys of a module over
time. Sure, there are other reasons too but the history of decisions around a
module's path forward seems to me the largest loss if ownership changes hands
every 2 months.

Do you think there is a valid distinction here between code and non-code
modules? Clearly there's advantage to a code module owner being in place
for a long time. Is that equally true of all non-code modules?
I would argue that it is not equally true for non-code modules.
In this case, it's effectively that a different peer becomes owner in
each period, then goes back to being a peer.
than "the current chair" if that position rotates often and I'm not
sure what that would look like. Perhaps the current and most recent
former chair so that there's some coverage from the past at the same
time?
Can someone remind us of the frequency with which the chairmanship rotates?
Chairmanship used to rotate on a monthly basis, but starting March 1st it will
be every 2 months.
