Exactly! but most of the time, the PDWG has better
 to do :'-(

"...favours one candidate over the others."

...i understand your intent, but i could not fully
agree because, these eligibility criteria were only
proposed with the aim to discourage those who
want to start from *top* without any clue :'-(

Absolutely not in the spirit to favour anyone!

...remark! i, personal, not had to read any of the
four CVs provided...until now...but, that's due to
the actual context :-)

If the pré-slate was differently constituted...then
 there would have been, maybe, more pressure
for more efforts...

...imho, having more information is not bad...
because it should be just about filtering it ;-)

Some of us want to be sure that there is sufficient
information to deal with; without having to dig
down massive source of information...on the first place...and i agree with
them; because it seems
to not really scale :-/

...yes! but, you must check with AdminSys team
 first to be sure there is no technical issue showing
 that the nominee is not responsible of the missing
 data ;-)

Right! and it's probably near to what have been
stated here [1] too :-)

"1| we actually know the various sources [1,2,3]
where to find the information related to individual
 active participation within the PDWG. But it should
 not be the responsibility of the PDWG to dig down
 those sources on the first hand...but it's ok to double-check...if need
be."

...i also support its nomination and it appears to
be the only valid one; according to the eligibility
criteria; as already [2] demonstrated.

The earlier is still ongoing, imho, and i'm glad, that
 this second implementation of the selection of
PDWG's Chair by rough consensus seems to work
smoother than the first.

...i'm proud to what this WG is actually achieving,
 slowly but surely :-)

Shalom,
