[diversity] Proposed slide for Diversity TF update during Closing Plenary

I love the notion of "space chairs"! Autocorrect is wonderful.

And it's the PC who needs to know, because we're talking about the Plenary, but I'll give them a heads up anyway.

    I personally do not think it is an issue.. Amanda can easily explain why we are thinking of this and it is only a proposal at this stage.. and Brian can email all the space chairs to confirm this.

To be clear, I think with the plan of definitely doing it as a trial, rather than putting it out as just a possibility.

    >> I think the easiest thing is for me to send a mail to the PC saying that the TF would like to talk to them/us in more detail about the proposal to see where we can get to and that we will be saying it during the Plenary. Fair warning, and it's only a proposal?
