I said "later this week".

And yes, since this is the first time around, it is my personal preference 
to wait and make sure everything is in order, even if it takes a bit 
longer.  The entire basis for this process is the apparent consensus on 
Simon's document; it seems best to deviate as little as possible with 
regard to bootstrapping.  At the moment, we have a choice between the 
chairs taking office later than prescribed or doing so without the 
confirmation of the third vote-taker.

Fortunately, "we" don't really have the choice, in that it's not up to you 
or I.  Assuming David find some discrepancy, the new chairs know who they 
are, and nothing's stopping them from acting whenever and (more or less) 
however they feel is appropriate.
