I'm a bit confused - new chairs will have to write a procedure that will 
enable them to become chairs later on?

This is a bit confusing, I must say. If the working group agrees on new 
chairs, then there is no need of re-confirming. We can ask them to come 
up with a new procedure that is evaluated in WG, but is used for next 
chair(s) rotation. Don't add too much complexity, please ;)

Thnx for all the work done in the past and in the future!
