Here’s what the breakout group reached consensus on.

A petition for removal would arise in the relevant SO/AC

The SO/AC would organise a briefing call to establish whether there is sufficient  support within the SO/AC to move to the next step. A clear reasoning/rationale must be provided and the Director given a chance to respond. Sufficient support threshold is simple majority. This call should be open to all to attend but is a discussion of the SO/AC.

If there is a simple majority to proceed then the SO/AC would convene a Community Forum for the discussion to proceed. The forum can be light weight and very possibly not face to face. It is open to all. A clear reasoning/rationale must be provided and the Director given a chance to respond.

Immediately after the Community Forum, the relevant SO/AC sends every other SO/AC a request for comment on the removal. 

The other SO/ACs provide written comments.

The relevant SO/AC then makes a decision. Removal of the Director requires a 75% majority in the relevant SO/AC.

The relevant SO/AC must publish the results and an explanation if the Director is removed.

Cheers,

Chris
