Revise working group description and voting #457

Closed cmbarton closed 5 months ago

Specify no more than 2 WG co-chairs can vote in the Executive Committee. Remove descriptions of cyberinfrastructure and early career scholars in charter to go along with proposal to redefine them as Working Groups.

I've updated this PR with the changes discussed in our recent Executive Committee meeting this morning. Each WG still only gets one vote to prevent dilution of voting power from the Members Council, (5+3 = 8 total votes) and some preliminary language to address the possibility of conflicts within WG on voting matters that should be unlikely but if they do end up unresolvable would turn into an abstention

closing in favor of #466 which includes these changes as well as other general updates after the recent Members Council meeting
