This should be done because we follow what was stated by us (or those
who were before us and we kept silence).

Why all council should be responsible for one? If council member fails
to find time to get to meetings then it's good for all if he leaves
council, but I don't see any reason to call new global vote. So it's
better to modify GLEP 39 and state that such council member should be
replaced using default replacement strategy, and could be elected again
(drop part elections about slackerness).
