What is a "management position? [Last Call: <draft-farrresnickel-harassment-05.txt> (IETF Anti-Harassment Procedures) to Best Current Practice]

I just noticed that the draft uses the phrase "IETF management position"
without defining it. I think that is in itself a bug.

Does it mean "a position which under the rules of BCP10 is
potentially subject to a Recall"?

Or does it also include people appointed by ADs (WG chairs
and secretaries, Directorate members)?

This needs to be clarified. And they are two very different cases.

For the AD appointees, common logic would suggest that the Ombudsteam
be allowed (not obliged) to inform the AD, in confidence of course.

For the recallable positions, the situation is much more tricky
because a recall petition needs 20 signatories and is announced.
Let's get real : if that happens, the confidentiality *will* be
breached.
