This is already covered in the Trust agreement section 6.1, which states that the IAOC are "Eligible Persons", and they become Trustees when they agree to that in writing. The addition makes the administrative procedures consistent with the trust agreement - but why say it twice? > If at any time the IAOC ceases to exist, the Trustees then in office > shall remain in office and determine the future of the Trust in > accordance with the Trust Agreement. This is already covered in the Trust Agreement section 6.1 (c) - the expiration of the IAOC would reduce the number of Eligible Persons to zero, making the IESG, or the IESG's successor as the leadership of the IETF, repsonsible for picking at least 3 people to serve as temporary Trustees. So this proposed change would be in breach of the trust agreement - not good. The administrative procedures need to refer to section 6.1 of the trust agreement; creativity is bad.
