[rpd] Co-Chair Election Process

[JORDI PALET MARTINEZ]

Hi Eddy, 

 

I’m sure you have already considered that, but just in case.

 


>From a “formal” perspective, for both the AGMM and the PPM, if for any reason it is required to “host” a physical meeting (in addition to the remote participants), you can always “host” it at your offices. Maybe some locals+staff could participate from there if the Covid19 conditions allow that with “social distance”. Just to comply with legal formalities.


 

Regards,

Jordi

Dear Colleagues,

 

Thank you for your feedback.

 

We are compiling the main ideas that were shared, and Madhvi will communicate with you on the main elements that were raised by the end of the week.

 

We will assess the feasibility of different options and will come back with a plan that will be submitted for Board approval next week. We will keep you informed.

 

However, I would like to address the question of whether or not we should have a meeting online. For compliance purposes,  the AGMM needs to happen before the end of September. Besides, the Bylaws stipulates a minimum of 1 PDP per year. We, therefore, have no other choice but to hold our meeting online. Every time we have a meeting, the participants who can not travel always connect remotely, and it will, therefore, not be a brand new scenario. The novelty is about none of us being able to travel, and this is what we are aiming to address together.

 

Thanks for your understanding.

 

Kind regards,

 

Eddy

Chers Collegues,

 

Nous vous remercions de vos differentes contributions.

 

Nous sommes en train de compiler les differentes idees maitresses et Madhvi vous communiquera avant la fin de cette semaine un recapitulatif de vos propositions.

 

Nous allons etudier la faisabilite de ces differentes options et reviendrons vers vous avec un plan qui sera soumis au Board pour approbation au courant de la semaine prochaine. Nous continuerons a vous tenir informe du progres.

 

Cependant, j’aimerai repondre a une preoccupation qui a ete soulevee sur l’importance de la tenue d’une reunion en ligne. Pour des raisons de regulation, nous avons l’obligation de tenir une reunion generale des membres avant la fin de Septembre. En plus, notre Bylaws mentione que nous devons tenir au moins une reunion de PDP par an. Nous n’avons donc pas d’autre choix que d’organiser une reunion en ligne. Chaque annee, tous les participants qui ne savent pas se deplacer participent toujours a nos reunions en lignes et ce ne sera donc pas une nouveaute. La seule nouveaute pour 2020 est que personne ne pourra voyager et c’est ce que nous essayons d’addresser ensemble.

 

Merci pour votre comprehension,

 

Meilleures salutations,

 

Eddy

Subject: Co-Chair Election Process

 

Dear PDWG community members

The Public Policy Meeting will be on the agenda of the  Africa Internet Summit 2020 (AIS-20) in September. One PDWG co-chair’s term (one year) will end during the Public Policy Meeting. 

The election process for the PDWG co-chair (please see https://www.afrinic.net/policy/development-working-group#election for more details) says that voting shall be by a simple show of hands. However, this Public Policy meeting shall be held online.

We are therefore requesting feedback from the community on how AFRINIC can best proceed with the election to fill the vacant seat of one PDP co-chair. We shall be delighted to receive your proposals for this important matter and hope we can have a consensus within a week.

Regards,

Eddy

Chers membres de la communauté du PDWG,

La réunion de politique publique sera à l'ordre du jour du Sommet Africain de l'Internet 2020 (AIS-20) qui se tiendra du 14 au 18 septembre 2020. Le mandat d'un des coprésidents du PDWG (un an) prendra fin pendant la réunion de politique publique.

Le processus d'élection du coprésident du PDWG (voir https://www.afrinic.net/policy/development-working-group#election pour plus de détails) prévoit que le vote se fera à main levée. Toutefois, cette réunion de politique publique se tiendra en ligne.

Nous demandons donc à la communauté de nous faire part de ses commentaires sur la meilleure façon pour AFRINIC de procéder à l'élection pour pourvoir le siège vacant d'un coprésident du PDP. Nous serons ravis de recevoir vos propositions sur cette importante question et esperons avoir un consensus dans une semaine.

Cordialement,

Eddy
