<p>In the past, some of the PDWG Co-Chair elections have literally
happened from beginning to end at the election time of the meeting
- that is - Candidates volunteered for the position at the
election meeting. The Meeting can also decide who should have a
one year and a two year term. May need to do a paper vote rather
than show of hands to make the event more formal from a numbers
point of view. This particular election (PDWG CoChair) is the
least formal of all AfriNIC elections - and that should be fine.</p>
<p>Candidates should have been involved in the PDP some time in the
past - perhaps as a (co) author of a policy (at least subscribed
to RPD and have submitted an e-mail comment at some time) - that
is - they have shown previous interest in the actual process; and
preferably those voting should have been involved with AfriNIC for
at least a year, working for a resource holder or similar.<br>
