[NCSG-PC] Call for votes: PC Chair election

[Marilia Maciel]

+1 to having Rafik as chair. Rafik's name does not need any further comment
and praising, he has showed his competence and leadership throughout the
years. He will be an excellent chair.

On my side, I apologise for the low involvement on the past two months.
Since the IGF I have been involved on a massive research project, with
interviews and field work, which forced me to shut down to other issues for
a while.

A year ago, when we were conducting the PC elections, the situation was
that we were confronted with no one else willing to do it. Matt, David and
I formed a team of chair and co-chairs to fill the gap and keep the ball
rolling. Now we are in a different situation, and I am very happy that we
are not looking at filling the void with this PC chair election, but
actually developing the conditions to leverage NCSG to the next level. With
the support of NCSG members, Rafik is the right person to achieve this goal.

All the best,
Marilia
