I completely support this!
2 or 3 terms, plus a "freeze period" (1 term? 1 year?) to avoid cases 
where a chair "jumps" to another WG.

I think the general idea is not to have frequent "impeachments", but 
establish a process where a WG chair change (against his/her own 
will, when they violate the PDP) isn't halted at some point by one of its
