A couple of chairs noticed that there is a new button visible to them saying "Request closing group". However, chairs have no rights to click this button. My guess is that this button shouldn't be visible to the chair..? =r was the intention to actually provide a new functionality to the chair to request closing to the ADs?
Also I assume the process is now that when I as an AD request closing, there is a manual step involved...? Not sure why that is... I think it should be fine to just close the group right a way and only generate a email to the secretariat to indicate if the mailing list should be closed or not.
Also I added some information about the closure (for tcpinc) in the respective instructions field because I was assuming that would also show up in the history. I think having some information available to the general public on why and how a group was closed could be useful and should probably even show up on the closed wg datatracker page directly, e.g. information about which mailing should be used if further questions come up or why exactly a group was close (success or failure...)
