[PC-NCSG] (Se) electing a new Chair and Alternate Chair

[Amr Elsadr]

Hi,

Distribution of work amongst a team of three was my reasoning for the suggestion. However, balance was honestly not what I was taking into consideration.

My hope is that two alternate chairs from the two constituencies would ensure more robust input to policy statements, either for or against NCSG endorsement. We've had a problem with that in the past. 

Sorry for the short notes. I'm typing on my phone in the middle of a snowy day. :)

Thanks. 

Amr
