[Mmwg] Important : procedure for runoff election

Our charter says "Chairs can either be designated by consensus of the MMWG or by a 2/3 vote." So if we want to go by the book, unless we can reach consensus on another chair I think we should vote until another candidate gathers 2/3 of the votes -- or change our charter.
 
Now I'm not sure I understand Bertrand's proposal. What happens in the case we have the following situation where V are voters and A, B and C the 3 candidates ?
 
V ABC
1 xx
2  xx
3 x x
4 xx

Ok - sorry.
Can we have some discussion on this until the 18th, then?

	Actually, I thought that it was so clear that your suggestion was a good
	one that it didn't need explicit support, but if it needs some, here is
	mine.
