[Internal-cg] Charter commenting

I agree that we should set up a mechanism for comments from the
general public with the following properties:

It clearly, bluntly, repeatedly and unavoidably states that the
preferred method for participation is via the relevant communities.
  Maybe we should have a check box where people have to acknowledge
that they understand this before they can post a comment. ;-)

All comments should be stored in a public archive for all to see,
including for us. Comments in this archive should be kept available
for all to see for at least 5 years after they are made.

Discussion should be strongly discouraged in this mechanism. There are
other places for that already; the most appropriate are the relevant
communities.

We can then see all these comments and take them into account as
appropriate.

Comments for the charter should be treated as just a special case of
the above.  14 calendar days is about the right time for this as this
is about the time we would need to get substantive comments from our
communities and I do not see that final agreement on the charter will
substantially delay our other current work.
