[PC-NCSG] Do we need to have a call?

[Avri Doria]

Hi,

I assumed you weren't either since once you ceased being a council
member your seat on the PC was taken by another council member and you
became an observer in the group.

I don't think our charter allows observers to be chair.

We had an alternate chair for a bit, but then he left.

For the CCWG-Account I presumed to play chair, since i had been an alt-
chair last year and gap filling is a natural inclination of mine.

And while the charter prohibits Rafik from being PC Chair, I am hoping
he will act as chair pro tem until we get an election done.

>>> On the Nov. 11 NCSG PC call I raised the chair topic and suggested that Amr would be great at this, since he?s both a process and a substance maven.  Avri suggested that given the workload and past experience with inconsistent chairing it?d be desirable to have a non-Councilor in the role (although then we have a chair elected by a constituency rather than the whole SG).  I?m not aware that the conversation has proceeded beyond this, has it?  It would seem pressing to resolve.
