[lir-wg]Election of chairs to the lir-wg - call for nominations

Dear wg, As mentioned at the last wg-meeting, one of the co-chairs, James Alderidge, has started working for the RIPE NCC, and as one of the unwritten rules of the LIR-wg is that it should be chaired by non RIPE NCC staff, James is no longer serving as a co-chair of this wg. Last time we had an election the wg deceided that one chair and two co-chairs was suitable. As I find it good practice to hold an open election from time to time I propose that we do an election for all 3 chairs. I would like to propose to the WG that we do a open nomination process on the lir-wg list up until lets say one month before the next RIPE meeting (27 to 31 January 2003) for chair and two co-chairs and that we do the chair election at the next wg meeting in Amsterdam. This should give the wg a good opportunity to discuss potential candidates. Best Regards, Hans Petter Holen lir-wg chair.

Dear wg, I have seen no reactions to this posting. I would think it should be fairly important to the wg to figure out: 1) Who should chair this wg in the future ? 2) Are the current chairs accepting renomination ? (yes I am if you still want me :-) 3) Does the wg want to have 1 chair and 2 co chairs ? -hph --On 23. oktober 2002 21:42 +0200 Hans Petter Holen <hpholen@tiscali.no> wrote:

At the risk of being recursive, the WG chair

I for one would be extremely pleased to have HPH continue. He has done a fine job.
3) Does the wg want to have 1 chair and 2 co chairs ?
Well, at least one chair and one co chair, but if co-chairs prove unreliable, then its helpful to have a spare :-)

I'm agree with you on importance level of this issue, so I start to submit me nominations statement: I'm Andrea Borgato, I.NET LIR Manager. I'm currently support on LIR start up activities some italian companies. I joined to RIPE community since 1995 and I attend all ripe meeting since the beginning of 2000.
2) Are the current chairs accepting renomination ? (yes I am if you still want me :-)
Yes. Of course I support Hans Peter renomination as chair.
3) Does the wg want to have 1 chair and 2 co chairs ?
As I observed in the past 1 chair and 2 co chairs still remain good decision. At least I will available to contribute in wg if community will supported me. Andrea Borgato.
