We could also define such Initiatives as "Permanent" projects, rather than defined as a Special Interest Groups (as John suggested), which might make the Initiative appear to be one with a focus on advocacy rather than on development or charitable projects.

The Disability Chapter, the Inter Planetary Networking​ Chapter and the Chapter as proposed here, are actually the Chapter ideas that fit better into the Internet model.

At the very least, changes must be introduced with a clear date in which they will be assessed (and by whom etc.) so if need be they can be reverted and redirected. "It is interesting and good people want it" may be a naive motive to support but not a sufficient one.
