Dear all, At the upcoming General Meeting, there will be an election to fill two seats on the RIPE NCC Executive Board. The three candidates for those seats are: - Randy Bush - Ondřej Filip - Kevin Meynell We are holding an online event for members to meet the candidates on Wednesday, 7 May 2025 from 13:00 - 14:30 UTC / 15:00 - 16:30 CEST. You can register for this Open House at: https://www.ripe.net/meetings/open-house/meet-the-executive-board-candidates... This is your opportunity to hear directly from the candidates as they introduce themselves and explain why they are standing for election. Members can also ask questions on the issues that matter to them. The session will be hosted on the Meetecho platform. All registered participants will receive a link in an email on the day of the event. A recording will also be available for those unable to attend. The candidates are also subscribed to the members-discuss mailing list, so feel free to post your questions to this list as well. Kevin Meynell is not a representative for a RIPE NCC member, but he is subscribed to this list for the period of the election so he can respond to any member questions and participate in discussions as a candidate. The candidates’ biographies and motivations are all published at: https://www.ripe.net/membership/gm/meetings/may-2025/executive-board-electio... We encourage all members to register to attend the GM and vote on resolutions and in the Executive Board election.
