I agree.  the reason I worded it as I did "at least one" is that there  
may be cases where the scpe is narow enough or the milestones short  
enough that this may not be necessary.  As I have probably made clear  
various times in the past I am personally very much in favor of co- 
chaired leadership for precisely the reaon you give.  And for the  
additional reason that having co-chairs gives chairs greater latitude  
in participation as it allows for one co-chair to stand aside on an  
issue he or she cares about, leaving the rough consensus call to the  
other co-chair.
