Peter,

I think your text captures the issue, modulo two points:

>    The IETF LLC will
>    propose an initial slate of members for this committee, making sure
>    to include members from the community, and consult with the stream
>    representatives regarding the final membership of the committee.

I think that "will" must become a "should" or "is requested to", because 
we do not dictate to the LLC in this document and we shouldn't start here.

Also, if your intent was to capture John's point about having a 
diversity of perspectives on the committee, I don't think you quite got 
there.  You could change that line to something like:

> including people with {diverse/different} perspectives,

To answer an earlier point from Eric about whether that parameter can be 
tested, then, the RSAB can then ask the question, “How do these people 
hold diverse perspectives?” and provide feedback on the answer.

Eliot
