Re: [MLS] recharter text

Sorry for chiming in late on this. As noted before (thanks Brendan), there are two items for which we have good consensus and that are being worked on actively:

 - safe extensions
 - user trees

Neither is currently covered by the 01-01 charter. Given how far along we are in the process, this should already be covered now and not in 6 months from now.
Beyond that, if regular rechartering is an option, I think we should go for it and reconsider things in 6-12 months.
