Well, for prior organizations we haven't allowed having more than one
liaison for *any* organization to avoid confusion. Why would OpenWRT be
different? One of the two needs to be the main liaison, and the other
an alternate.

For replacement of the liaisons, their procedure isn't any more muddy
than anyone else's. We can live with it.

We don't want to repeat past mistakes with new affiliates.
