I am not authorised to speak on behalf of the Board, and I am 
not a member of Nomcom, so I will not comment on communications 
between the Board and Nomcom.

I can comment on my own actions.  On Monday 11 May 2015, I asked 
the staff Nomcom liaison to ask Nomcom to delay publication of 
the slate until after the Board had completed one of the steps 
required by the bylaws.  The Board completed that step in the 
evening of Wednesday 13 May 2015, and the slate was published in 
the morning of Thursday 14 May.
