[PC-NCSG] Time to elect a new chair and alternate chair(s)

[marie-laure Lemineur]

Hi Avri,

Sorry for the delay in replying. Not due to a lack of interest at all but
to the fact that this needed to be discussed with Rudi the other NPOC
policy rep at NCSG level, and he is busy attending  a one-week BoT meeting.
We were able to exchange some emails and share opinions to find that we
agree with your latest proposal (process, deadlines, etc,). By the way,
thank you for settling this and thanks to Amr for contributing.  The only
"but" would be that  I would favor picking your original proposal with
regards to the one chair and one alternate model, each from one
constituency vs. having one chair and two alternates.  In December, in my
opinion,  you rightly argued that it would allow more balance in term of
representativeness unlike the other option (two alternates and one chair).
I keep thinking this is the best way to go.

best,

mll
