This sounds reasonable to me. Thanks, Secretaries.

Hi all,
It was noted by a few individuals that the way the bylaws stand about
fulfilling the initial 12 Core Committee roles as if there is a
12-member vacancy this leads to a rather inefficient situation where
some people would have their terms expire in April/May of this year
which I'm sure you all agree is non-ideal as (1) they won't have time
to settle in (2) CC elections take time and focus away from working on
specifications and two in such a short period is relatively unhelpful.
However, a small change could help resolve this issue so I'm just
asking if anyone objects to us doing it slightly differently**
The old system would have involved the following three terms:
Top four candidates term expires in: August 2018
Next four candidates term expires in: January 2018
Last four candidates terms expire in: April 2017
My suggestion is to change it so they receive the following (slightly
extended terms so the minimum term is ~1 year and maximum is just over
2 years):
Top four candidates term expires in: April 2019
Next four candidates term expires in: August 2018
Last four candidates terms expire in: January 2018
Essentially, we just skip the first normal CC election and extend
everyone's term by a few months so that we stay on the defined
calendar for future elections.

Many thanks

should do this doesn't really help with the aim of reducing
bureaucracy in this instance
