Charter looks good generally. One change I'd suggest is to be a little
more specific about the election and terms of offices.

For example,

[replace] 1.6.6 Officers are to be elected using the PAB voting mechanism
via the PAB email list. The Chair shall announce the schedule for each
regular election by January 1 of each year. Each regular election shall be
held no later than January 20.

[replace] 1.6.7 The terms of all officers shall run from February 1 to
January 31 of each calendar year, except that the term of PAB officers
elected in 1997 shall continue until January 31, 1999. Officers serve
until their successors are elected.

[new] 1.6.10 If an office becomes vacant, a special election to replace
that officer shall be held within 30 days of the date the vacancy occurred.
