it’s probably a good idea to have a single chair to kick
things off. This doesn’t mean that even by the second meeting
we establish that co-chairs are a good idea. The first meeting
it is good to have some clarity, simplicity and a single
person steering us through the call!

Secretary is useful, particularly for larger committees, like
this one seems destined to be, can handle roll call, agenda,
minutes, etc. and leave the Chair with hands free to actually
concentrate on the meeting and its discussions.

We should also remember that every deliverable from a TC needs
at least one editor: In my experience, the TC’s work is better
served when the roles of chair and editor are separated. The
editor’s job is to ensure that texts reflect agreement or
consensus in the group; the chair’s role is to steer the group
towards such agreement. Editors need to be known when the TC
advances onto the first step of the formal process of creating
any particular deliverable – although names can be added or
changed any time up to publication.
