There's certainly plenty to be done. But I don't think it's fair to say there's a "backlog" resulting from not yet having David's counts. As I noted before, discussion does not require chairs. Editing and updating documents in response to comments does not require chairs. Achieving consensus does not require chairs. Furthermore, prior to the start of the election process, we were operating informally, and that didn't prevent us from effectively agreeing things were done and getting them implemented.

Since I issued a consensus call on the provisional charter on July 7, there have been 19 messages discussing one document (PTS name mapping), which resulted in 3 revisions to that document and, hopefully, something closer to consensus on that document; all of that discussion occurred within a one-week period. There was also one message from Tom announcing a new version of the AFSVol TLV document, to which there were no replies.

So, maybe one document is stalled waiting for chairs to issue a consensus call. Maybe. There is certainly not a "backlog" of work waiting for chairs' attention.
