[rpd] Selecting WG Co-Chairs: Was Re: Can a Consensual Decision of the PDWG Violate the PDP? (was: Report from Recall Committee)

[Mark Elkins]

Ask the NomCom to ask for volunteers. Just use the templates from 2020. 
Have an initial cut-off after seven days.

With last year, I was quite ecstatic when we ended up with just one 
volunteer. "Consensus" as such is great.

However, we technically need one person for three to six months and 
another for that same period plus one year. I'm wondering whether it 
might be more sane to extend both of these positions by one year? - or 
we simply consent to have the same people extended by an additional year 
each at whenever we have the next AFRINIC meeting?  Alternativly - we 
could be seen as simply bringing forwards the normal election of 
Co-Chairs to now(ish) - as we have an urgent need.

We also need to have a system on deciding who is in for a short term and 
who is in for a longer term. Voting may be the simplest method (as this 
will all be done remotely).

Any way - my thoughts.
