        For co-chairs, you want people that have been active and
        experienced in the policy arena. Looking for them to meet that
        criteria and yet never have expressed an opinion on a policy
        under current (or future) discussion is an unrealistic
        expectation. Really, we should not disqualify people simply
        because their name is associated with a policy, but rather we
        should expect that they will disclose any COI and that we trust
        them to act on behalf of the community and not merely their own

    Sorry but for me this is so naive.<br>
    People are human and they have their own opinions which are often
    difficult to separate when they need to act on behalf of the
    community. Even if they strongly believe they know how to separate
    things most of the time they will fool themselves to feel more
    comfortable they are doing it fine. It's human nature.<br>
    <p>I believe people need to chose their place: if they made
      themselves available and were elected to act on behalf of the
      community they must not put their personal opinions while their
      tenure is on and look the most neutral possible. Otherwise there
      will always be doubts and distrust from people watching it. If the
      person is not prepared for that it is simple: just don't put
      himself/herself forward.</p>
