Perhaps I'm confused (as usual), but I don't see a new TTWG Charter on my AC My Questionnaires page for my vote, so I was assuming this wasn't yet a final Staff proposal to the AC for a vote, but a draft that could take input. If it's a Staff proposal to the AC for a vote, then I agree with your point. 

Perhaps a Staff member can enlighten us?
