[PC-NCSG] board candidate

[Amr Elsadr]

Hi,

We?re talking about this topic at today?s policy meeting, right? I just wanted to fwd my thoughts. I think, out of principle, we need to take a firm stand in this election. The CSG have informed us that we can either back their candidate or go into a deadlock. If we back down, it will be an unfortunate precedent, and will encourage the CSG to take this position repetitively.

Last time around, we had some Board appointed councillors, which we thankfully don?t have now. I know we?re scheduled to speak to Bill tomorrow morning, and I would have liked to meet him, but this should be a matter of principle. I hope we can reach a full consensus on this, and would appreciate hearing thoughts.

Thanks.

Amr
