Dear Colleagues,
This is a call for nominations or volunteers to co-chair the RIPE NCC Services working group.
Please DO NOT reply to this message if you wish to volunteer or propose a volunteer.
In accordance with the chair selection process we announce that the term of one of our co-chairs (Rob Evans) will soon expire and we would like to invite volunteers, or nominations, for someone to become a co-chair of the RIPE NCC Services working group.
Anyone may volunteer, and anyone may be nominated by someone else.
To do this, please send a mail to ncc-services-wg-chairs@ripe.net before the end of Tuesday 11th October 2022.
It would be helpful for candidates to provide some words as to why they think they ought to be a co-chair, what new ideas, or improvements they might bring, and so on.
We will publish the list of volunteers, along with anything the volunteers include with their nomination, to this mailing list on Tuesday 11th October 2022. Discussion and support (or opposition) for each candidate can then be offered on the list.
At the NCC Services working group session at RIPE 85, Kurtis will announce the candidate based on the mailing list discussion.
