[Internal-cg] Co-chair roles document for comment

[Joseph Alhadeff]

I would ask members to use the time frames requested to both comment on numbers as well as on the description of thr role.  I would also ask that if we go with one chair we have some form of backup if the one chair can not make a meeting.

I think Mary has spoken very wise words here. It is a pity that we have
been too far down a rat-hole to hear her when she said this during the
meeting. Maybe we can take the chance to heed her advice now.

I, for one, completely agree with her.

I also believe Alissa did an outstanding job preparing and running the
meeting. We should we look further?
