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

In the light of MJE's contribution, I would like to modify my earlier
submission.


My personal preference for Interim Chairs' selection:

• [A] a selection through rough consensus [2] After prospects do volunteer;
• [B] a selection based on ranking voting [3] if more than 2 volunteers,
then discussions;
• [C] a selection based on an election (online) as usual [1] if more
than 2 candidates and discussions stalemate;
• [D] a selection inside a group of selectees based on criteria [4] (a
long and unnecessary process for selecting the interim Chairs);
• [E] any other possibility?

I have no problem with NOMCOM being the selectees in [D] above. It will
not be a long and un-necessary process.

Sunday.
