[Brian E Carpenter <[e-mail]>]

Good start.

It should mention the Trust as well as the LLC Board. In that context,
as well as the IAB/IESG, it might be wise to mention institutional
memory as potential argument *against* turnover in some cases.

I also note that this advice is diversity-friendly. Diversity as such
has never been stated as a NomCom goal, as far as I know, and can
easily become a third-rail topic, but this draft goes in the right
direction.

I'd be inclined to make it Updates: 8713. (That's "updates" in the
"extends" sense, and want to be sure this becomes part of BCP 10.)
