This is a suggestion to the AB for consideration in discussions on what its role should be. The AB is an advisory group, but it also controls editing the Process document and could block or delay change in the process by refusing to move it to AC review. That puts too much power in a small group that AC members cannot join. We should move that function to an AC taskforce that any AC member could join and have the AB focus on its role in providing advice. Proposal: Create a TaskForce in the AC to edit the Process and to govern when it goes to the AC for review. 1. Any AC rep can join at any time 2. All AB members are automatically in it, AB chooses chair 3. TaskForce can create multiple proposals for AC review or agree on single proposals. 4. All work should be on public process CG list, but may be on an AC list (main list or sublist for something sensitive) 5. As now, whatever is proposed moves to the AC for review/approval. 6. AC members or the AB could submit proposals to the TaskForce (so the AB could still have a role in developing proposals, just not have a choke point on moving a proposal on to the AC)
