Good start. It should mention the Trust as well as the LLC Board. In that context, as well as the IAB/IESG, it might be wise to mention institutional memory as potential argument *against* turnover in some cases. I also note that this advice is diversity-friendly. Diversity as such has never been stated as a NomCom goal, as far as I know, and can easily become a third-rail topic, but this draft goes in the right direction. I'd be inclined to make it Updates: 8713. (That's "updates" in the "extends" sense, and want to be sure this becomes part of BCP 10.)
