People might be discouraged to run against the long-time chairs. **** Exactly, that's was my point, it looks that I was not able to find the best wording. I've seen that in other organizations, not just here. 1) You ask for volunteers to replace "existing co-chair a" 2) There are 1-2 volunteers 3) "existing co-chair a" say, I will also volunteer to continue 4) There are comments like "existing co-chair a" has been there for long time, he knows the job ... 5) the 1-2 volunteers then drop-out. May be the recommendation should be "2 terms maximum, 2 years each, then 1 year minimum stop, unless there are no other volunteers to fill the vacancy". ********************************************** IPv4 is over Are you ready for the new Internet ? http://www.theipv6company.com The IPv6 Company This electronic message contains information which may be privileged or confidential.
