My reading of John's proposal (draft-klensin-iaoc-member-00) is that it
is framed in such a way to avoid some of the issues that can occur with
draft-kolkman-iasa-ex-officio-membership-00. When delegating
responsibility, one should also consider accountability. Having a
non-voting liaison side steps that.
And that is exactly the problem with 'non-voting' status in a committee
that mainly operates by consensus. It allows people who really ought
to share accountability to apear to avoid it.
