[rpd] Report from Recall Committee

[JORDI PALET MARTINEZ]

I just realized there is one more possible option offered by the PDP section 3.3:

"If the Working Group Chair is unable to serve his or her full term, the Working Group may select a replacement to serve the remainder of the term. If the Working Group Chairs are unable to attend the Public Policy Meeting, the Working Group shall nominate a Chair for the session. Anyone present at the meeting, whether in person or by remote participation, may participate in the selection process for a temporary Chair."

We can ask the board to call for a meeting and then select the chairs. Basically is almost the same as going for online elections ...

Regards,
Jordi

    Hello

    Let's try to make the things as simple and objective as possible in 
    order to avoid more endless discussions.

    1 - Yes we do need on-line elections (only possible way) in a few weeks 
    time with the previous electoral census as done previously.

    2 - Ideally the Board could choose 2 transition/temporary chairs, 
    however the problem is that the current CPM doesn't provision about this 
    possibility anywhere in it. In fact it is a pity that we still could not 
    move forward a PDP change to have this possibility available for 
    situations like this one we are going on. So in my view we don't have 
    that option available right now.

    3 - I don't think there is minimal condition we nominate anyone right 
    now, even temporary until the elections are held. That has the potential 
    of another round of hard discussions. So let's make it simple and wait 
    for the Board to organize it and until there we remain with no Co-Chairs 
    bearing in mind the downsides of it.

    Regarding the discussions in this email list we can do the following:

    - Halt any policy discussions until the election is concluded
    - Keep any other generic discussions and if really necessary due to any 
    conflicts or confusion that may happen in the mean time the list to be 
    moderated until the new Co-Chairs take their role. I am personally 
    prepared to wait if such scenario is necessary. Don't think would be 
    much longer as the Board will make sure to move things as soon as 
    possible regarding the election.

    Regards
    Fernando
