Research direction

Review the Charter's references to “Linux Foundation Executive Director” and “Executive Director of the Linux Foundation,” then compare them with the stated role of the OCI Executive Director. Done means determining the intended authority and agreeing on whether the Charter wording should be changed.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

All of the references to "Executive Director" in the Charter are written as "Linux Foundation Executive Director" or "Executive Director of the Linux Foundation" (who is Jim Zemlin). @caniszczyk is the Executive Director of the OCI, but it seems like the Charter seems to imply that he has no procedural powers because there are no references to his position? In fact as far as I can tell, it doesn't even establish his existence.

Is this a mistake -- should all of the references to "Executive Director of the Linux Foundation" or "Linux Foundation Executive Director" actually be "OCI Executive Director"?
