[rpd] Criteria for Eligibility or Selection of PDWG Co-Chairs

[Mike Silber]

Thanks Noah

I think that is an excellent list.

The only thing I would add to your point 5 is an intangible quality - a
history (or perception) of building consensus. Some of us understand RFC
7282, but because of our passion, style or language are less successful (or
perceived as less successful) at moving the group towards consensus.

Regards

Mike
