[PC-NCSG] [urgent] NCPH candidate nomination

[Amr Elsadr]

Hi,

Thanks for this Rafik. I agree on all counts. Lets move forward with nominating Heather, and hopefully get this done today with no extension to the deadline.

I had asked for this to be discussed during the council meeting under AoB, but was disconnected so did not have the chance to bring it up. Not sure if somebody else did, or not. It seems it won?t be necessary after all.

Thanks again.

Amr

We can go with nominating Heather since we are not proposing any alternative (we had the opportunity to do so) and we will decide for the votes later, more carefully. there will opportunities to discuss with candidates and personally I think we have to weight all options.
