    <p>Ayden, fair enough :-)</p>
    <p>But I think the RDS did not work for other reasons - namely, the
      ongoing refusal of certain members to believe the GDPR was real.
      That was not the job of the Chair/Vice-Chair. In that case, I
      think it was critical that Michele and David were alongside Chuck
      and Susan Kawaguchi in the RDS endeavor. Can you imagine if they
      had not been?  <br>
    </p>
    <p>When we needed something, we went to David and Michele... I think
      the principle still holds. I don't see neutrality in anyone's
      formula on this one. Absent that, balance is key (everything often
      weighs on it). I think you would be a great vice-chair, for
      example :-)!<br>

              <p>Agree with Rafik, too. I don't see what is the big
                difference between two co-chairs and chair/vice-chair
                set up (as I assume they are interchangeable when one
                person can't be present at the time-consuming meetings
                for whatever reason and they share the workload). I
                wouldn't favour the council selection - rather leave it
                to the group (or SSC, but I'd prefer the group selecting
                them). However, on the latter issue I'll go with any
                position PC develops - to me
                membership/size/participation is more important because
                if the group is sizeable and manageable and -- as I
                prefer downsizing it to no more 3 members from SG -- the
                leadership issue is less of a problem. These two are
                intertwined, IMHO. <br>
