Colleagues, there is still plenty of time to nominate candidates for the upcoming WG co-chair vacancy. Anyone can be nominated. They can even nominate themselves! Details of the role’s responsibilities are outlined in RIPE Document 542 tough this is a little out of date. Dave, Jaap and myself are of course happy to provide more details or answer questions from potential candidates - just get in touch.
At present, only two names have emerged: Ralf Weber and Shane Kerr. More choices would be welcomed. So far, there have only been a few statements of support on the list for both Ralf and Shane. More voices of support would strengthen the consensus determination that has to be made. So vote early, vote often! Assuming we did voting at RIPE.... :-)
The plan remains to have the WG discuss/endorse the choice of candidates on the list, make a consensus determination about that at RIPE73 and announce the result to the WG then.
