As a safeguard against the appearance of cabals, etc., if there
is going to be a statement about the minimum membership of that
committee, it should also include an IETF-appointed member who
is not a member of the IESG or IAB.  This is a little bit like
the "outside director" requirement that is common for personnel
committees of standard corporate boards.

I don't think I'm concerned about a real risk of problems here,
but it is always desirable to avoid any possible appearance of
impropriety, especially when that is easy.
