Dear IPv6-wg list members and RIPE community. In the upcoming RIPE meeting (RIPE87) we will select a new co-chair, who will fill the gap, since Benedikt Stockebrand has decided to step down and not run for another term. The selection process will be done at the IPv6-wg session, via the meeting system "Meetecho". There will be a poll on who do you want to select. This system is available for all onsite and online. You will all get a link from the meeting organization to the Meetecho website, keep it near... You can still register for the meeting online or onsite: https://ripe87.ripe.net/attend/register/ In response to our request on the list we are glad to announce that we have 2 interested candidates: Christian Seitz Paolo Volpato They will send in their personal motivations and backgrounds to this list soon. We would like the members of this list to show their support for their preferred candidate, or send questions to the candidates, so we can discuss this even before the meeting. The decision however will be made at the meeting as said before. Best regards, The IPv6 WG chairs. For Internal Use Only
