Adjust the status of Tim Berners-Lee in the TAG #791

Open frivoal opened 1 year ago

This ensures he has permanent access to participate in the TAG, without putting him on the critical path for any vote or quorum that involves TAG members, notably the Council's Unanimous Short Circuit.

More broadly, this also removes him from being part of the Council, as the Council's purpose is to replace his former role as Director in resolving Formal Objections.

This is one possible solution to #784, with #792 and #793 being alternatives.

I like the approach here, but I think merely having a standing invitation to TAG meetings is slightly too weak, in the sense that it needs to be clear that he is invited, but not required, to participate fully in all TAG activities, as well as meetings or sessions.

Another difference this would make is that Timbl would no longer be involved (and therefore not counted when determining the 2/3 marjority) when voting on approving TAG appointments.
