[EC-NCSG] election preparation

[Rafik Dammak]

Hi everyone.

the election preparation is ongoing with the check-in process and the
nomination period:
- the check-in process is still continuing till 26th Aug to give all
members the chance to join. Maryam sent several reminders and we are also
sending direct emails too to get responses as much as possible. we extend
the deadline if needed but we have to prepare the list to send to Glen
beforehand and also be able to double-check. any help to contact people is
welcome here.

After the nomination period, candidates are supposed to send their
statement. one idea is to organize a confcall for candidates and members
this week maybe for 60 to 90min. I would suggest as tentative dates 26th or
28th Aug (we can also make it by 31st Aug if needed)

The format should be simple, I am proposing this
- statement by candidates starting with those for chair positions then
council (max 3 minutes for each candidates), we will go by alphabetical
order (last name)
- asking them 3 questions we think relevant (your input would be helpful)
and not redundant with those asked already for the statement
- then opening the floor to Q&A from members and give most of time for them
I can do the moderation

any rules we should think about here? we should work on this quickly so we
can make the announcement (we will send several reminders to nudge people
to attend) and ask candidates about their availability soon. it is kind of
experiment for us and we can learn a lot from it.

Best,

Rafik
