[EC-NCSG] NCSG Membership Applications and EC Evaluation Procedures

[marie-laure Lemineur]

Dear Rafik, Robin, Lori and al.,

Over these last days I  have started to review the list of pending
applications that Rafik kindly uploaded. Rafik answering a question I asked
him told me I should review row 1 to 32 ie review 31 applications. I
started doing it but realized the following:

-the current list uploaded gathers pending applications and already
approved applications;
- Since Rafik had already worked on the list. I self-volunteered to also
contribute and not bother Rafik anymore. This is why I proceeded, in the
document that you will find attached,  to separate what is labelled on the
original list sent by Rafik as "pending" and what is labelled as "approved
applications". They are three taps in the same Excel doc;
-As a result of this, you will realize that instead of having 117 rows with
mixed application status, now we have  a  list of strictly pending
applications from row 1 to row 43 on one list which means that there are
only 42 pending applications;
-the 61 approved applications have been copied and pasted in the separate
list;
-Among those 42 applications I am aware of some who have been in the queue
for quite some time now;

 I am proposing that instead of reviewing 31 applications we might as well
review the 42 ie the whole batch. It does not really make sense (in my
humble opinion)  to left out 11 applications and it does not make a huge
difference either. If we do this round, we might as well want to complete
it once for all.

Best regards,

Marie-laure
