That's fair. And also what I had in mind especially when LP membership
(currently at least) is expiry based.
So something like a 2-year term a volunteer commits to. Perfectly fine
(not ideal) to step down at any point in time. And should ask TB to
run again when their membership is about to expire (like T-30 days or
something).

Anyway, thank you for serving your time in DMB. Hope you can step up
again in the future.
