'''Team Charter Full Text'''

The process for selecting new team members will follow the following steps:

# A Check Poll will be launched in the Community Working Group to collect expressions of interest from potential new team members.
# Prospective team members will be asked to submit a short written statement to the existing Operations Team, which will review them and vote via ranked choice.
# The Operations Team will confirm the interest of the chosen candidates, and then submit a proposal to the Community Working Group to ratify their appointment to the Operations Team.
# We will also put an open call in the full membership group for folks interested in sitting in one of the two “at large” seats, and elect those seats via a vote from the full membership via approval voting.
