First of all thanks a lot for this, I agree with all parts, just two
comments below:

Isn't that the same? The majority of 7 people is always 4+. Or are you
saying that we need the majority to attend to a vote and of that
majority again the majority?

The latter doesn't sound that good, as you would end up with passing
votes that are less than the majority. I would strictly stick to
having a majority quorum of positive votes compared to the full number
of members, irrespective of how many are attending the voting.

Since the decisions of this committee are reported and ratified by
fesco, is this needed? This sounds like we do some work and get it
approved by fesco. And then two weeks later a fesco member returns
from vacation and quotes this sentence to undo everything.
