[RDS-WHOIS2-RT] Replacement and Removal of Members

[SUN Lili]

Dear Alan,
Thanks for sharing the proposed text.
I'm fine with the first paragraph. For the second paragraph, I believe the disputing part will be how to define "disruptive", a 50% team member's request for removal will be persuasive. I was just wondering the meaning that "the member fails to resign", would it be better to change it to "the member refuses to resign"?
For your and other team member's consideration.
Thanks and regards,
Lili

Subject: [RDS-WHOIS2-RT] Replacement and Removal of Members

I was asked to propose wording for the section of the Terms of Reference on Replacement and Removal of Members

I would like to propose the following wording for the consideration of the RT.

Alan

=======

If a Review Team member is no longer able or willing to serve, or if an SO/AC withdraws its endorsement of the member, the SO/AC making the original endorsement will be requested to refill the position with a replacement member. The SO/AC will make the selection according to their own processes and will not be bound to consider only those candidates who originally applied requesting their endorsement.

If a Review Team member is sufficiently inactive or disruptive as to cause at least 50% of Review Team members (excluding the member in
question) to request their removal, the member will be asked to resign. If the member fails to resign, the SO/AC that endorsed the member will be requested to withdraw their endorsement and replace the member. Should the SO/AC not take action, the member can be removed by a 2/3 majority vote of the remaining Review Team members. 
In all cases, the balloting will be carried out in such a way as to not reveal how individual members voted.
