Per the language of passed motion for email ballot "20220727-03  Implement rotating chairs" (text of motion) the JC decided to have rotating chairs of 7 month terms, except for the last term which will be six months in length. The JC selected Rob Latham as the first chair, from June to December 2022, with others following by random and consensus selection over the remainder of the four year term.
