This proposal was discussed on the review and at the TC meeting yesterday. While it has so far attracted broad support, we'd like to give extra time for PTLs to review it. As mentioned by notmyname on the review, the change is effectively changing the term for which the current PTLs just got elected. The charter said "6 months", and with this change in effect the PTLs will actually be renewed before the start of Pike, so in 4 months. So we'd like to get extra time for PTLs to chime in on the change and post their +1 if they are fine with it. We'll wait until the TC meeting on November 8th to finally approve this.
