Minor point: I think the proposal is to delegate authority but not to
relinquish responsibility.

Some suggestions:
Replace "delegate their responsibilities" with ", by written action, delegate
specific responsibilities of their position".
Add after "IESG and IAB respectively." "A delegation must be reconfirmed if
a change in the scope of the delegation is desired."
Replace "The terms of delegation..." with "The effective duration of
delegation shall be selected by the delegator, but shall not extend past the
end of that delegator's current term. Delegations may be renewed
indefinitely."
Add at the end "A delegation may be revoked with or without prior notice at
any time by the delegating chair or CEO or by action of the confirming body."

Dear Colleagues,
I have just chartered a very short draft that intends to update BCP101. It
can be found at:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-kolkman-iasa-ex-officio-membership
The draft is very short and contains only a few sentences of substance:
The IETF chair, the IAB chair, and the ISOC President/CEO may
delegate their responsibilities to other persons. The delegations by
the IETF chair and the IAB chair need to be confirmed by the IESG and
IAB respectively. The terms of delegation is for a longer term for
instance aligned with the IESG and IAB appointment cycles (roughly
anual).
John Klensin made me aware he also had a similar idea earlier:
http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-klensin-iaoc-member-00.txt
The main difference is between his and this draft is that John's I-D makes
the person the chair delegates to a non-voting liaison. I have a small
preference for the IAB and the IESG keeping the control point, and I
implicitly assume that for IASA matters the persons delegated to will
escalate to the chairs and ask for specific guidance when appropriate. I
realize that for the Trust anybody serves on personal title. For the trust
alignment with the IAOC membership is just a practical considerations.
The shared requirement is unloading the I* chairs and the ISOC president and
empowering the people that serve in that role to organize themselves. (I
should have paid more attention to this much earlier.)
I plan to seek a sponsoring AD for getting this I-D published as a BCP
shortly.
Assuming this is an appropriate list for further discussion,
yours,
--Olaf
