Dear DB-WG Members, My name is David Hilario. I would like to present myself as a candidate for the DB-WG co-chair. Some of you have been working with me when I was part of the RIPE NCC, I am now working for Larus Cloud Services. The RIPE Database, being one of the core elements of RIPE, is an incredibly important tool and the DB WG carries it for the benefit of the whole community. I would be honored to be given the chance and opportunity to continue the work being done here on the RIPE Database with the support of the community. My involvement in with RIPE Database from the RIPE NCC side, gave me a deep knowledge of its history and usage, I believe it will enable me to now serve the community to the best of its interest. Kind Regards, David Hilario Hide original message

Dear DB-WG Members
As agreed during DB-WG session at RIPE69 Meeting in London on 06.11.2014, the WG Chair Selection procedure is executed at yearly intervals. This means that it is about time to run it this year.
This is the call for interested parties. Interested parties have 2 weeks to make their interest known on this mailing list. All members of the community are encourage to make a discussion and express their approval or otherwise of the presented candidates.
After two weeks the chairs will declare consensus.
Since there is a limit of 3 co-chairs, if at the end of the discussion phase there will be more than 3 proposed co-chairs then a call will be made for any of the candidates to withdraw.
If there still will be more than 3 candidates then names will be put into a hat and the first three names drawn from the hat will take on the role of chairs for the next 12 months.
As you may know, Job Snijders decided at the RIPE73, last week, to step down. Moreover, Nigel Titley declare that when a new chair is found, he would like to step down as well. This means, that the only reason Nigel is staying on, is not to leave the WG with only one chair.
Taking this opportunity, I would like to express my interest in being co-chair for another term.
All the best, Piotr
