The draft that proposes changes to the RFC3777/BCP10 to deal with vacancies is now available.
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-genarea-bcp10upd-00
Two comments:
1 (nit):
For vacancies due to death or resignation, no further action is
required, to declare the seat vacant.
Remove the second comma.
2:
For vacancies due to uncontested, sustained absence, the IETF body
making that determination will issue an Extended Last Call to the
community.
Where is "Extended Last Call" defined? There should be a citation thither, or a definition here.
I think this is a fine proposal, and I support it and hope the community will show consensus for it.
