I'm asking to what extent you consider the previous discussion to have been incorporated into your current document, if at all. IMHO it's best if each team - including the backporters team - decides for themselves how they want to operate, and are free to change things as and when they want. To that extent, if the backporters team wants have a detailed document like the one you have written, then that's absolutely fine. But why are you looking for the TB to "ratify" it and lock in the requirement that the TB must approve any changes? For example, you've said "This charter, and any changes to it, must be approved by the TB before taking effect" but also you've got minutiae in there such as which IRC channel is used and on what network. Won't causing the TB to "lock this in" be excessively beaurocratic? And what if you need a minor change? Are you expecting to go to the TB every time? Won't that be impractical? In case it's not clear, I think what you're proposing is rather different from my suggestion. I was focusing on the team responsibilities only - very deliberately leaving *how* the team might choose to fulfil those responsibilities out of it. Robie
