I agree this is a non-technical problem  and if someone else who can
start the meeting in the absence of the chair is always helpful. The
problem here is if we know who are most likely to chair the meeting
e.g. [1] we can allow them to start the meeting.

This is all the log there is. I don't even know if the person who
started the meeting is contributor to kolla or openstack for that
matter. My only query is people who know about official meetings will
not do it, but can we restrict those who dont? Otherwise there is no
meaning to the official meetings if anyone can start them anytime.
