https://github.com/swicg/potential-charters/pull/90 It's been more than 14 days since this change has been proposed. Ben Goering had an objection to a related charter change from March 2025. https://github.com/swicg/potential-charters/commit/e573d9c8194e7b412fe4391ab5d29e6889bf0249 I believe my new PR would revert this change. I hope that it aligns with Ben's concerns, but it'd be great to hear from him again to confirm. Can we please merge this PR? I'd really like to start the process of chair elections.
